Beirut - Gallipoli
Beirut - Gallipoli
Sounds like: Tallest Man on Earth, Sufjan Stevens, Vance Joy

Lionlimb - Clover
Sounds like: Elliot Smith, Sufjan Stevens, Iron & Wine
By Christiana Bartolini on Feb 19, 2018 | Lionlimb's new single, "Clover" is a lush orchestral pop symphony for a new generation.

On Dolphin - Worth The Drive
Sounds like: Cat Power, Jets To Brazil
By Cyrus Pavel on Jul 20, 2016 | This next track is one that you and I could definitely hear coming out of a Quentin Tarantino midwestern film. It's dramatic, it's haunting, and it's simply excellent work all around on the part of all the session players and the duet between Meliss... read more →
