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.

Austin Spotlight: El Campo Return with New Single

elcampEl Campo first came to my attention when they released the great Flexi Disc on Punctum Records, which was soon followed by Remember, their debut full-length. Not a band to sit around, they’ve returned again with a brand new song from their forthcoming Double A Side EP, “Sloe-Eyed.” Not to diminish their earlier work, but the execution of this song definitely stands out among their catalog; the voice of Jerid Morris works really well here, soaring to heights with the perfect tone whilst banjo and sliding guitars move behind him. There seems to be some youthful vitality to this song, while still holding true to the progressive country vibe. They’ll be releasing the EP soon, with a nice February tour heading up the Midwest and out to the East. Keep an eye on these guys…it’s for your own good.
