We were very into
Talking Through Tin Cans after catching these guys in '08 at a show. So was iTunes. Now they are prepping a new release and it sounds like their surf infused California dreaming is still in full board-walking, high-fiving swing.
After their recent signing to Rough Trade, the Benders are ready to release
Big Echo this year. With Grizzly Bear's Chris Taylor producing, it promises to be a meaty affair. First track "Promises" certainly suggestive a more percussive affair. In any event, they have dates planned around the album. Check the download below.
Big Echo is out 3/9. -
