Description
“delovely boy-girl indie pop, the kind that almost any Beatles, Spinanes or Belle and Sebastian fan would like if they got the chance to hear it…the two NYC singer-songwriters combine for a weave of wispy, mournful guitar ballads. The Pacific Ocean rock out on occasion, but their real specialty is modestly beautiful pop tunes like “All the Better Luck,” “I Can’t Replace a Thing” and “Fantastic Trip,” dusted with keyboards and drums while focused on Lovatt’s aching voice and Baluyut’s dry harmonies.”
