racy – Austin Town Hall

Hooray for Hooray for Earth

If I were to sit around and pick my top few singles for the month of July, this new track from Hooray for Earth would definitely be in my top two or three. There’s multiple components of the tune that keep me coming back to it: I love the seeming rise and fall of the guitar chords; I love the contrast between the verse and chorus, soft then loud (that’s a new tactic, right?). Shit. I could listen to this song two hundred more times and probably never grow tired of it; it’s a pretty perfect pop number. Their album Racy will be released by Dovecote Records on July 29th; I have a feeling I’m going to love it.

New Music from Hooray for Earth

May 1, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Joyous pop music! Don’t be tricked by the light traipsing about that opens this new song from Hooray for Earth. Even when the vocals first enter, the song’s moving at a slow space. But, percussion drops, guitars are distorted and pop fans everywhere are going to be happy with the result. This is one of those songs that makes an emphatic push to become one of those songs on everyone’s playlist for the duration of the summer; it’s that good. The group has a new album, Racy, which will be released by Dovecote on July 29th.
