synth driven songs. Byre is a stand out release from Rob Crow's (Pinback and many
others) AIR output. Byre has a completely unique vibe thanks to the musical

DOWD    7       TLA                     NEW LANGUAGE EP                 LP      09.2019

Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention
under power-hungry principal, Miguel Aldana. The disparate group includes rebel Jon
Sortland, outcast Tahiti Pehrson, brainy Genaro Vergoglini and Jason Clark, the jock.
Each has a chance to tell their story, making the others see them a little differently
-and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same. Led by
Jon Sortland of The Shins and artist Tahiti Pehrson, TLA has been described by
listeners as touching the zeitgeist. TLA songs are uniquely creative, embracing
stream of consciousness songcrafting and drawing from decades of friendship and
a love for pop culture of the 70's, 80's and 90's. This 12"" Single Sided Vinyl EP
has an etched B-Side featuring artwork by Tahiti Pehrson and a download card.

SoloS (S/T) is the long awaited follow-up to Beast of Both Worlds. Singer-songwriter
Aaron Ross and multi-instrumentalist Spencer Seim (Hella, The Advantage, Byre) have
created a raw collection of far out pop songs that are a contrast to the rugged,
ragged guitar/drum rock of SoloS BOBW album, showing a different personality of the
band. The duos songwriting and playing shine with all of the artists trademarks
exposed by minimal production. Each song features surprising timing and textures,
as parts and changes come together in delightfully unexpected ways. Intense drumming
and hooky synth lay a foundation for emotive vocals with angelic harmonies. This is
an entirely new SoloS.
