Ryan Egan plays Rough Trade on 12.13

Catch Ryan Egan at Rough Trade on December 13 with Maybird. The NYC-based indie pop artist dropped his latest single, “Tongue of Yours,” back at the end of September. Egan’s musical strengths – silky, emotive vocals at the forefront of no-frills production that gets out of the way of his voice — shine throughout the slice of catchy, melodic pop. “Finest Hour” is another cut worth checking out from Egan’s burgeoning oeuvre. The production here is a bit more inventive than on other Egan tracks. Building layers of synths and percussion make this a danceable, joyous burst of indie pop. -juan leon
