Field Music Share Beyond That of Courtesy

As I’ve already gotten close to wrapping up 2019 in my brain, I’m starting to look forward to what’s in store for 2020. High upon that list is the forthcoming LP from Field Music, and today there’s another single to support that premise. It opens with this playful stick work and bobbing bass line, all before the lyrics and the guitar take their places in the track. It reminds me of some of the last Q and Not U LPs, but with a slightly more pop bent…neither of which is a bad thing here. I love how the guitar has this sharpness that contrasts the vocal melody as it rises and falls. This band is on fire; Making a New World is out in January via Memphis Industries.

Field Music Share Another Tune

November 20, 2019 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I feel like I always take a good Field Music jam for granted, but I just got hooked on this brand new single shared today. There’s something that sort of sounds like it’s got a Byrne influence, all the way from the jagged guitar riffs to the way the vocals come across in the mix. Plus, one thing we all love about Byrne (and the TH for that matter) is the inevitable hook that comes in the lyrics; here you get the line of “money money money is a memory” to secure that same memorable moment in the tune. Making a New World is out on January 10th via Memphis Industries.
