Comment: This is a stunning, 3-pieced set of folk/US-based roots-inflected (for instance, country and folk music) indie pop by a quintet from Pittsburgh. Simple but recognizable, emotive but considered. Strumming guitar lines do flutter going up as the orchestrated progressions at times. Especially outstanding notch is Afternoon Tea, appeared in a subtle synergy consisting of wringed, guitar-based echo effects and whimsical chamber progressions. The last track is You`re the Blues, a cover version of the song of Nik & the Central Plains.
