Last Week’s Jams, Today (1.31 – 2.4)

Leave a comment

I know I know. Playlists via Spotify are quickly becoming passe, and rightfully so, but at the moment, there’s still not an easily manipulated to collect songs from various places and put them into one killer playlist. So while we wait on Bandcamp to figure it out, let’s just ignore the devil in the corner. This last week we got a brand new album from Love, Burns, courtesy of us! And Jigsaw and KUS! Our homies in Brothers Griin also dropped a tune from their debut LP, not to mention a sweet jam from Skeggs. So here you go, here’s some stuff. To start Monday.

Stray Fossa Ready Sophomore Album

Charlottesville based band Stray Fossa released their debut LP With You For Ever around this time last year and it quickly became a favorite around the ATH offices. While we are still spinning the debut, the band has stayed busy and is hitting us again in 2022 with the announcement of their sophomore release Closer Than We’ll Ever Know coming in June. Prior to the summer release date, the band has graciously allowed us to share the very first new track from the release entitled “Transpiring”. This one shows a band continuing to evolve their indie pop sound now with heavy doses of dreaminess and a slick groove sure to get your body moving. Check it out.

Closer Than We’ll Ever Know will be released on June 3rd via Born Loser Records. Pre-orders are already live.

Stray Fossa Share Diving Line Single

Leave a comment

With the release of their album about a week away, I wanted to point you all in the direction of Stray Fossa one last time. They release With You For Ever next Friday, and while I’ve offered you other singles, this one might just do the trick, right? Slowly trickling in, tiptoeing with a light strum and feathery voice, the song soon drops in from dreamscape to more texturized indie sound before launching off into their chilled pop room where we can all get lost. I loved the intermission, grooving and a touch more emphatic, giving the song that special bop that makes the kids swoon. Trust me, this is solid solid pop! Look for With You For Ever next Friday.

Stray Fossa Share How Come

Please file Stray Fossa‘s debut LP away in the category for “Nathan’s Most Anticipated in 2021.” It’s not hard to tell why I love this, as the track has this incredible rhythm bubbling beneath the shimmering shoegaze licks from the get go; it even take a nice bit building the tension in the first minute, seductively whisking you into the song. From there, the vocals have a nice soft edge to them too, letting the final syllables evaporate into the air. And, just as you have it all figured out, the back end has some solo flute work and a more emphatic vocal that puts the finishing touches on the tune. Their debut LP will be out in April courtesy of Nice Guy Records.

 

New Indie Pop From Stray Fossa

Leave a comment

Man we get a lot of things labeled as “indie pop” sent our way and typically the tune is either super commercial, pop star style or simply to slow and meandering to be considered pop music. Well today I have a truly bouncing and bright pop number called “For What Was” from my old pals in Charlottesville based group Stray Fossa. This ladies and gents, THIS, is what I truly consider an indie pop number. It’s super catchy, the synths come in perfectly and the beat is incredibly infectious. Mark it up as one of the best I’ve heard in the genre over the last few months.

 

Bright New Tune From Stray Fossa

Leave a comment

The sun is out in Austin and I was looking this morning for some tuneage to match the bright and sunny mood here. Today I need look no further than my new amigos in Charlottesville based band Stray Fossa and their new single “It’s Nothing”. It reminds me a bit of my old pals in Grand Archives if they added some dreamy, pop elements to their sound. Clearly this band has taken a bit of a dated, overdone genre and taken it into a new avenue with a refreshing, bright and airy style.
