Oakland dream pop dance band Trails and Ways have released Jacaranda, the third single from their forthcoming full-length Pathology (out on Barsuk Records on June 2). It's a sunny song about escape, driven by old school synths and multi-layered vocals.
They have made a video for their Skeletons single. All four band members play scientists who beam in to autopsy a post-apocalyptic Earth, while Arthur Cadre does an interpretive dance.
Trails and Ways:
Hannah Van Loon: vocals, lead guitar, synths
Ian Quirk: vocals, drums, production
Keith Brower Brown: vocals, rhythm guitar, synths
Emma Oppen: vocals, bass
They will hit the road in June to promote the album. Fellow Oaklandlians Waterstrider are the support act.
