The Chairman Dances Release Evening Song

The last month or so, we’ve made it a point to direct you towards the narrative pop stylings from Philly’s The Chairman Dances; they’ve officially released Evening Song, so we’d like to give you one last glimpse at the world you can open up by pressing play. The entirety of the new record circles around two romantic partners, and on “Faded & Fraying” you get to be there for a bit of their earliest interactions, with Chris visiting Maggie’s apartment. I loved this tune for its more traditional folk appeal, whilst still using great arrangement pieces to kind of allow the song to rise and fall in the storytelling; it’s a tactic that few can accomplish like The Chairman Dances. Please enjoy the tune below, and just click on their name to hear all of the new LP!

The Chairman Dances Share Hadn’t Tried

With Evening Song on the near horizon, I’ve been anticipating more little sprinkles of pop from the Chairman Dances, and that day has come with “Hadn’t Tried” looking into a kind of matured indiepop vibe, akin to what Voxtrot have been doing with their work of late; there’s an elegance that goes beyond the shimmering texture and studied bounce. For me, the success hits just near the 1.5 minute mark, as the vocals soar, with perfected backing vocals layering the melody. Musicianship with this outfit knows no limits, as they take the song’s latter half and spin it into this open expanse of jazz-inflected grooves, solidifying their peerlessness on this side of the pop realm. Evening Song is out October 11th.

The Chairman Dances Ready Evening Song

It’s been over a year since we last heard from Philadelphia popsters, The Chairman Dances, but it seems like this will all be worth the wait, with the group announcing a new record, Evening Song. Our first listen sprinkles in a bit of a light strummed jangle atop a roller-coaster of pop sensibility, rising and falling with the drama of the vocals. While you might file this under your typical folk meets orchestra meets rock, you’ll find a larger sense of exuberance within the confines of the tune; pretty sure there’s a little chuckle on the underbelly of a a vocal note or two, with an added “hey” celebrating the joyousness of band peaking at just the right time. Really looking forward to what’s to come on Evening Song, which hits on October 11th.
