Shame, Shame

Shame, Shame

Polished yet gritty indie rock defined by tight 60s-style harmonies, staccato piano, and a pervasive sense of existential longing. Their most cohesive studio effort.

It's like the Beatles grew up in a basement in Philly and started worrying about the meaning of life.

A soulful, slightly anxious reflection on the passage of time wrapped in warm, vintage melodies.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The explosive, cathartic guitar solo that rips through the title track's slow burn

The way the vocal harmonies stack and swell during the infectious hook of Where'd All the Time Go?

The sudden, dry drum fill that kicks off the jittery energy of Station
