Since they won our Band of the Month title last year, we’ve been keeping tabs on indie/alt rockers Brave Town. Yesterday the guys dropped an EP, and we’re already singing along.
Brimming with melodic guitar riffs, smooth, youthful vocals and tasteful percussion, the 4-song release shows the sunny side of alternative rock. With this EP, Brave Town achieve the delicate balance between deliberate and organic, and find a natural middle ground among the quartet’s range of influences. The opening track "Denim" is vibrant and danceable, while "Is It Worth It" takes the acoustic route to highlight encouraging and uplifting lyrics.
The Brave Town EP is the perfect thing to listen to if you’re feeling down. Or happy. Or getting ready to conquer the day. Or really any time at all.
Give it a listen here, and don’t miss Brave Town’s release show at The High Watt this Friday with Corey Kilgannon and Fleurie. -Caroline Bowman
