Thanks for this! I like The Joy Formidable but they'd fallen off my radar! I listened to the new stuff last night while falling asleep, sounded great. Looking forward to listening again today (probably a few times) :) I'd totally go see them, too. I just bought tickets to see Sylvan Esso, outdoors in Portland in September. First show I'll have been to since the pandemic started. They have a show here at the Greek, too. I'm half tempted to go to both but I'm worried that'd be too much big crowds for me in a short period of time and I like the idea of seeing them up in Portland making our Portland trip more special. - -seneca On Wed, Jul 28, 2021, 7:10 PM Gregory Bossert wrote: > I donb t hear much new music outside of game soundtracks these days - the > last ectophilic group I came across was Daughter thanks to their wonderful > soundtrack for the game Life is Strange: Before the Storm.
