From IRC’s submission box: The enchanting, sultry – perhaps even seductive – new indie rock single “North Carolina” from New Jersey band Blue Vervain.
As this new track eludes to, The Saddle Brook indie-‘mood’/bedroom pop band has been gaining some love from indie music fans in recent years and even opened for Young The Giant.
The single is the title track from their sophomore album dropped earlier this year. Blue Vervain is named after a flower that is often used as an alternative remedy for anxiety and depression.
Blue Vervain was founded by lead vocalist and songwriter Jon Khan in the summer of 2018 as a solo project that eventually grew into the current five-piece band that includes Nikki Marroccoli – Keyboards/Synths; Chris Selman – Guitar; Ori Yekutiel – Drums.
Influences: Snail Mail, Phoebe Bridgers, Soccer Mommy, Lucy Dacus, Tigers Jaw, The Menzinger
