Phil Wilson and his crew are back with a new EP called She Seems Quite Free. It's out on September 1 on Slumberland Records in the U.S. and Occultation Records in the U.K.
This first cut is spry and sounds like all the things about this group that were so inspiring to other bands. I can hear traces of Housemartins here but Wilson and his lads are not quite so peppy as that. And there's a hint of early Smiths too.
Additionally, the tune is named "Being There" which could be a nod to one of my favorite Hal Ashby films and for that it gets points in my book.
