Listen To Welcomer’s Single ‘A Steely Dan Covers Band’
Te Whanganui-a-Tara “wilted pop” 5-piece Welcomer abide by their SRN chart-topping debut tune ‘Cicadas 3’ with second solitary ‘A Steely Dan Handles Band’, out these days by using Papaiti Documents. Featuring Daniel McBride (Sheep Puppy & Wolf) on saxophone, the new music demonstrates on the unavoidable passing of time — centred about recollections of witnessing a Steely Dan handles band of contestable high-quality (“hey fuck you, what ever, whatever they were being superior”) perform in a park and a pal turning thirty.
As humorous as the lyrics can be, the ballad’s temper is nostalgically mournful. By refusing to audio like the track’s namesake, major songwriter Miles Sutton perhaps indicates that memory is like a dodgy pastiche, primarily when noticed through rose-tinted eyeglasses: “Well, I’ll get it. It’s only a image, and you glance fantastic.” Even the guitar echoes the shifting swirl of remembrance, and when the brass last but not least enters, it fills the scene with an eerie timelessness. Welcomer are celebrating their new launch future thirty day period at their hometown’s Pyramid Club, joined by Thriller Waitress and shannengeorgiapetersen…
