You might have noticed my last few posts have mellowed out a bit, and that’s no real accident. A lot of that has to do with the impending sunshine and gradual lifting of grey that is springtime in Pittsburgh. Summer roadtrips are starting to get schemed and even my own music has taken a turn towards the more subtle as of late. That last point may be slightly related to my neighbor and I having differing definitions of the term “noise violation”, but I digress… All of this is to say that this song by Sam Prekop (he of Sea and Cake fame) and the accompanying visuals are pretty much exactly what’s going on inside my headspace right now.

Peals make some laid back, sometimes warm/sometimes electronic music that falls closer to The Books than The Clientele on the easy-listening psych spectrum. Here they are playing “Floating Leaf”, from last year’s Walking Field, a song so relaxing you’d never guess that this project is how they fill time between their day jobs playing in Future Islands and Double Dagger.
