Last Week’s Jams (3.17 – 3.21)

Well, after going pretty nonstop for nearly 20 years, RayRay and I had our first real Spring Break, so we took a few days off…please forgive us! That means that today you’re getting a lot of jams coming your way, new and a week old that I couldn’t ignore! But, even with our time off, Ray and I covered almost 20 new tunes…all but one included in our weekly wrap-up playlist to get your day started. There’s new Buffet Lunch, Mamalarky, Sharp Pins and more. If you want to go back and revisit the “writing,” just scroll through the site, but you’re going to have to try to keep up as the tunes are coming fast and heavy at you today!

GBMystical Announces Wannabe + Shares Remember

You’re going to want to head over to your calendar and mark up May 2nd; it’s the day that GBMystical, the project of Terrin Munawet, drops the new Wannabe LP. We get to peek inside the record today with “Remember,” and my earliest sentiment is that it fills the space that Greg Mendez filled up recently, sort of a singer-songwriter that blossoms into full-pop maestro. When you press play below, there is a certain charm and self-awareness that you get from someone like Tony Molina, especially with a line like “I forget all my best ideas.” But, while that’s a pleasant entry to the song, the album’s sonic morphs come to fruition as this tune opens up into a bright bit of California style pop; it kind of feels like he’s channeling the Dead, yet maximizing melodic warmth like later Woods records do. This song sets the stage for an album that moves in and out of like-minded styles, rewarding in different ways each step you go. Expect this to sell out over and over again; Wannabe drops May 2nd, via Bee Side Cassettes.
