Accelerator

Shimmering guitars and neon-soaked synths collide on this propulsive record. It captures the exact feeling of a California sunset viewed from a moving car.

It's the perfect record for when you want to feel like the main character in a coming-of-age movie set in LA.

A propulsive blend of California sunshine and late-night introspection.
