Ceramic Animal recently shared a new single, “Hit or Miss,” featured on their forthcoming sophomore album. A strolling, twang-inflected ditty is warmed-over with the addition of keys. Re-routing misguided ambitions, while aspiring to retain companionship, the song hovers between hope and a melancholy distance. You can find the dapper quartet at Union Transfer on Thursday, May 17, supporting local boogie-woogie rock ‘n’ rollers Low Cut Connie. (Photo by Dylan O’Connor)
