This June Surf Harp released a new single titled "Leather" on bandcamp – their first release since "Machete" back in 2013. Fellow Batltimore based musician and electro-pop indie celebrity Dan Deacon has already marked his stamp of approval. The track’s lyrics contain suggested hand amputation, sewing, pill popping, hair receding, leather purchasing, and a pair of lipstick stained boots all disguised in the fuzzy, summery glow of surf pop instrumentation. This 5-piece group recorded locally in Baltimore’s The Compost Loft and The Annex and will be playing a show in Baltimore at the end of the month at The Crown on 7/30.
