A Look at the Polaris Long List: 21. Great Lake Swimmers - New Wild Everywhere
Heard this group’s name for while but never really knew much about them or their music. I finally got to hear the music because they headlined a show that Cold Specks opened for them on a few weeks back. Truth be told, I really went to see Cold Specks who blew me away live pretty much just as much, if not more than, she did on record. I stayed for a few songs of GLS’s set but ended up cutting out early, maybe about five songs in. Not that they’re wack but the prospect of yet another album of country/folk-tinged indie pop had me feeling the same way just a few songs into this album. I stuck it out for two runs through but this is just not my thing.
