As reported in early January,<\/strong><\/a> we were seriously wowed by LA indie band Alyeska’s<\/a><\/strong> song Medicine River. <\/strong><\/em>Now comes Alyeska’s\u00a0<\/span><\/b>superb follow-up, the track EverGlow<\/strong><\/em>, which you can listen to below<\/span>. \u00a0Once again revered producer John Agnello<\/strong>\u00a0(Kurt Vile,<\/b>\u00a0Phosphorescent, Hop Along, Alvvays, <\/b>etc.) is at the production helm (as he will be on their debut album to be released this summer).<\/p>\n

\n

While Medicine River\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>set the bar incredibly high, EverGlow<\/strong><\/em> doesn’t disappoint. \u00a0We love the chiming, metronomic opening, Alaska Reid’s<\/strong> stirring, soulful vocals (of course), the grungy guitar crunch, and the frantic drum attacks to close. \u00a0The song’s lyrics also are a cut-above (see at bottom). Reid<\/strong> laments\u00a0“I’ve got a headache and a heartbreak,” but then cruxes: “Feels like change.” The poet’s soul lives.<\/p>\n
