Albums
[edit]Plaid On Plaid
[edit]On May 5th, 2017 the band released their first LP, Plaid On Plaid, through indie label Yellow K Records. It was described by Stereogum as "sounds like Brian Wilson refracting through Animal Collective and boomeranging back to the '60s, leaving behind sonic contrails in its wake."[1]
Hey Sufjan, You Took Too Long So I Went Ahead And Made West Virginia
[edit]On September 11, 2020 the band released the short LP, Hey Sufjan, You Took Too Long So I Went Ahead And Made West Virginia, through indie label Yellow K Records. The title made direct reference to the 50 States Project by Sufjan Stevens. The album was featured in both Stereogum and Pitchfork[2][3]
