Irish Indie Band, Good Strangers make their debut with the track, Egyptian Summer. The folk rock band focuses on storytelling as a way to bring communities and people closer. Their music is lyrically driven, layered with touching emotions and imagery to bring this theme to life. Listening to this band is a sure way to float back to the 90s. Its soulful evocations are strung into raw and rustic soundscapes that have us feeling nostalgic. The track anticipates the release of the band’s debut EP, ‘Adult Teenage Novels’. Listeners of The Mountain Goats, Hozier, Oasis, and the like are sure to enjoy the emotional depth and resonance of this band.
The track opens with acoustic drizzles that are uplifted by a mellow beat structure. Leading up to the chorus, the buoyant baritones are filtered by glassy soprano harmonies. Set up by pyro riffs and beats, the softness bursts into passion in the chorus; with a rawness and candor so riveting. The double vocal dance continues into the second verse and puts on a voracious octave play towards the end. Bolstered by riffs and strident drums, the vocals soar to achieve an overwhelming grandeur.
