PR Newman Shares Who Swept the Jungle Video

Leave a comment

One of the unfortunate things about this pandemic is that music you’d expect to adore live, or tell your friends about, perhaps didn’t get the attention you’d normally give it. Take the latest album from PR Newman, Private Lives; it was released in April and we hope you didn’t miss your chance to enjoy these tunes. If you did, you can rectify your errors by enjoying this great new video form album stand out “Who Swept the Jungle,” show by Matthew Logan Vasquez and Sophie Molinari. The video has a little bit of that Texas Hill Country, as well as some of Spencer’s humor, so we hope you’ll start off your day listening…and if you’re inclined, a great thing to pick up on Bandcamp today.

Meet PR Newman

Spencer Garland’s been tinkering around the Austin music scene for some time now, but he seems to finally have found his groove with his new project PR Newman. The song definitely harkens to a bit of a folk/Americana feel, though Spencer seems willing to stretch that as near to the border of pop songwriting as possible. I love the resounding idea in the lyric “happy,” especially when juxtaposed with preceding ideas…you can follow along in the lyrical video below. It also never hurts to have a guest appearance from the Bond Twins. Welcome to your new favorite Austin act!
