Patrick Damphier releases debut LP “Say I’m Pretty”

Late last year, we previewed the release of indie pop artist Patrick Damphier with "Pretend It", one of the singles off of his debut album Say I’m Pretty. The album dropped on February 1st, with that song and previous single "Under My Door" included in the ten-track mix. The album — the first solo release from Damphier, a former member of the Mynabirds and Angel Olsen’s band, among other groups — showcases an indie pop-rock sound like Real Estate, for anyone feeling nostalgic for that early 2010s chill vibe. Damphier’s collaborators Richard Swift, Molly Parden, and Jessica Lea Mayfield appear on the record as background vocalists; you can view a performance of "Odd Man Out" with Parden below. Stay tuned for news of hometown shows to support the release of Say I’m Pretty. – Will Sisskind
