On The Rise: Arches




On The Rise is what I will be calling blog posts featuring new artists/bands that have come to my attention; ones that I feel deserve a little lovin' on.

Last night on Old South High the boys and I sat around listening to vinyls.  When Sgt. Pepper finished with "A Day In The Life" (and thoroughly analyzed) a new album was pulled from the collection.  
One I had never seen.  It had a vintage green cover.  
"You must hear this..." I was told. 
When he put it on I held the cover and stared at it.  It is captivating in its simplicity.  
Little buildings.  What are they for?


"I already love it!" I said
And I did.
And I do.

Off of their 9-track record, Wide Awake, I present you with the opening song

The album is soft.
It creates feelings, for me, of falling into a place of rightness. 
Of remembering something you had forgotten.
Entering the mellow vortex of a place you didn't know you were familiar with.
I fell in love.

Give it a listen, if you'd like, and we can discuss!
