When: Their self-titled EP is out now. LP coming soon.
Why: Remember Iglu & Hartley? Now they were an ear party. Yeah, whatever happened to them? Well amid the success and stress of their debut album two members needed a creative outlet and started a project aimed at fun and release. As these projects often do, it took on a life of its own and now Youngblood Hawke is it’s own force to be reckoned with. I’ve seen these guys live and know that they bring the party. A party they will be bringing tomorrow at day 2 of The Burning Ear parties @ SXSW. Sweetness.
If Dan Black already established the viability of skinny white hipster rap, then its Iglu & Hartly that actually make me think (falsely) that I could do it too! Besides their glammy synth-rock they represent the SoCal vibe with a solid surfer bum look. Imagine the Dogtown & Z-Boys plus 10 years and a junior college degree… and minus any sleeves. Awesome. Anyway, get on this track and just try not to to sing along by the end. I know I can’t wait to see them live. “In This City” (L.A. what what!) has been infecting my brain for the past few months now and having recently got their full LP & Then Boom, I can happily recommend the whole shebang. Throw it on as the perfect soundtrack to your BBQ party… or BBQ party fantasy.
