Blacks& | What They ThinkTropical pop has no faults. Ever...

Blacks& | What They Think Tropical pop has no faults. Ever since Ezra Koenig and co. discussed the merits of an Oxford Comma, to devastating effect, the stripped back sound of a band kissing goodnight to the sunshine became something of a staple. Blacks&  (pronounced ‘Black Sand’, I’m guessing)  sent U.S. bloggers nuts around April of this year, with ‘ The Race Is On ’. Now they’ve an EP/single of the same title, hitting it up stateside and [...]

Blacks& - The Race is On

Blacks& - The Race is On Blacks& - The Race is On At the beginning when I first heard this song, I thought I was getting into the  California Games  (the NES game) soundtrack. But what evolved was this dinnertime-island-surf-pop vibe fueled by “whiskey and head nods”. Consisting of Donald Eley ( The Sea of Cortez ) and Tiger ( NazcarNation ) and Jules Bellin ( POLLS ) and Jutty Shark these L.A.-natives tastey gems that shape a sunny Sunday evening. They’ve released a little EP [where this song is free] themselves which you can pick up on their bandcamp [...]

Blacks& The Race Is On + What They Think

Then you hit the three minute mark. Electric guitar [...]

Blacks& - Tonight

Blacks& - Tonight Blacks& - Tonight Today, Los Angeles band Blacks& (pronounced Black Sand) released their debut EP,  A Ghost That Follows Me.  The sounds are the sounds of summer - sun drenched, soft bobbing-as-the-waves rhythm, the kind of simplicity that makes something stronger.   It’s exciting to see projects like this popping up in my own city. Not surprisingly, the band members stem from a line of other great projects including Sea of Cortez , NazcarNation [...]
