Reuniting this past summer after a four year break to work on other projects, Massachusetts and Brooklyn based The Jaguar Club prepare to release their latest EP “Close” on March 3rd. Currently hosting a weekly Wednesday night residency at Pianos, the band has recently released digitally some new tracks that continue to expand on its signature sound. “Heat Of The Sun” (streaming) pairs crooner vocals with distinct guitar lines, echoing the Morrissey/Marr relationship. The lyrical mood is more positive, however, as heartache goes “bouncing off the ceiling,” giving way to the appreciation of the light (and heat) produced by the sun. Spacious instrumental interludes emphasize ambient keyboards, jingly tambourine and brightly strummed guitar chords. The Jaguar Club’s residency show on February 11 also features Leave The Planet, Mariko, Cosmonaut & Night Squirrel. – Dave Cromwell
