Airtight rhythms ebb and flow with beautiful vocal harmonies that shimmer with interspersed electronic bleeps and bloops. The Austin octet, Chief Perch, have an uncanny ability to tap into the dance-centric melodies that keep our fingers pressing play. Lead singer, Ariel Herrerra, has a Stefani-esque warble mixed with a classic R&B croon, and her charismatic stage presence is equally entrancing as it is hypnotic. Chief Perch has double the typical amount of band members, hence, they emit double the amount of funky fresh beats. Their debut album, Shoulda Would Coulda, was released in October of this past year, and is remarkable in its variety and quality of tracks.
