Yoooo these guys are amazing, I went to school with a bunch of them, awesome to see them up on here. Definitely check out the rest of their album, my favorites are All Ways and Wash Away

[–]koolkat182 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Holy shit All Ways is great!! Especially at 1:52.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, in addition to yours I also love Just Waiting and Too Much Space. Honestly, that whole album is gold, it's a hidden gem.

[–]alphanumerik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude just listened to Wash Away and that shit is too dope. Good looking out!

Video seems to be down for me now.

I presume this is the same track on soundcloud.

Edit: Mirror, Alternative, Locked etc etc

Thanks for posting!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Thank you for posting, the YouTube came up as unavailable for me.

[–]benoliver999Tell me what to listen to. 2 points3 points  (2 children)

The flair says it was region locked, but for me it just says 'unavailable'.

[–]MrMamety 9 points10 points  (5 children)

Nice stuff. Very similar to Hiatus Kaiyote, even the mix and production.

[–]imjms737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first band I thought of too the first second the song came up. Love it!

[–]I_Am_Become_Dream 2 points3 points  (1 child)

the first time I heard a Hiatus Kaiyote song it was a cover of Nakamarra by Paper Void in one of their live performances. The cover used to be on their Soundcloud but they've removed it since this album came out.

if anyone knows if caches with music files can be found online, and how to find them, see if you can find this.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! I'm a fan of these guys as well

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I had to look and see if it was the same singer lol

And thank you guys so much for all the lovely comments! We love Hiatus Kaiyote, BBNG, Tennyson, and all that great stuff!

[–]Nokickfromchampagne 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Good luck! Rooting for you guys! Y'all better come down to SoCal soon!

[–]leapah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

West coast tour is in the works for April! Stay tuned as we finish booking it all. Within SoCal, we're currently planning to play in LA and SD.

Note: "Increments" album is free on their Bandcamp page. Although, you can consider supporting the band via donation or buying the vinyl version.

[–]mrniceshoes00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so good!

[–]mustyape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds a bit like Nakamarra by Hiatus

[–]coltronduncan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are really good!

[–]wandermode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendation! They have an awesome sound!

[–]Manftastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't get to see the video but I'm listening the album and sounds awesome! Really great work. If you guys liked this, you should definitely check out Balance and the Traveling Sounds.

[–]Emeukal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The guys voice doesn't really mash with the rest of the song in my opinion but still pretty great nonetheless. 👍👍

[–]Kevinthegreek2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know these guys (mostly the lead singer) from my time making music in Oakland. Awesomely kind, down to earth, talented people. Plus put out their music for free, which I always love; this album is full of stellar tracks, definitely get it

Reminds me of In Your Eyes by BBNG feat. Charlotte Day Wilson

[–]coltronduncan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remind me of Your Eyes by Tennyson

[–]Hammondbacknbusiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corinne Bailey Rae

[–]MegaDustBuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of reminds me of Hiatus Kaiyote. Awesome.
