So here’s a nod to another promising band I didn’t know about until they sent me a link to download their debut released last October.
Boston indie-pop quintet The Hush Now have made an indelible impression on music critics and fans with their “lush sugar-spun melodies of shoegaze’s dreamy heyday”.
The Hush Now’s magical debut record is a boost for any band. After listening to the album more than a few times, it’s hard not to appreciate its rich, layered pop songs opulent with waves of melodies and harmonies accented by memorable keyboard riffs and catchy beats.
Can’t wait to hear their next release. The following songs are from their self-titled debut in October 2008. The first track, “Vancouver”, is my personal favorite. If you like the band, add them on MySpace.
“Vancouver” – The Hush Now
“Traditions” – The Hush Now
“Subtle Like Bombs” – The Hush Now
