Long Island, N.Y. indie-poppers build their songs from a foundation of '70s soft-rock and '80s new-wave, then pile on the hipper touches like chillwave and dream-pop. Vocalist Andrea Estella leads the way with an understated delivery, while the band locks into smooth grooves with ease. Light synth parts and trebly guitar lines with a touch of atmospheric Echo and the Bunnymen style production set the mood nicely. It's a low-key, relaxed dance affair. Their 2011 album In Heaven feels like the soundtrack of some mad world between David Lynch and Donnie Darko.
