Grandaddy / Last Place (2017); Das Album markiert Grandaddys Rückkehr nach über einem Jahrzehnt Pause – und es klingt, als wären sie nie weg gewesen. Mit warmen Synths, melancholischem Indie-Rock und Jason Lytles gewohnt zerbrechlich-ironischer Stimme erzählt das Album von Trennung, Nostalgie und dem digitalen Zeitalter. #Grandaddy #IndieRock #IndiePop #FolkPop #PsychedelicRock #JasonLytle #California #SingerSongwriter

Grandaddy, Blu Wav, 2024 on Dangerbird

New record from 90s indie rock band Grandaddy – their first in ~6 years and the first since bassist Kevin Garcia died. Blu wav is meant to be a portmanteau of “Bluegrass” and “New Wave” but it makes me think of the blue wave we hoped to see in the last election.

Tucker Martine did the mixing, but Lytle wrote, performed, and produced all the songs, supported by Max Hart on Pedal Steel. Not sure what makes a Grandaddy album versus a Jason Lytle solo album but I’ll take it either way.

My copy – on “Nebula Vinyl” – via Rough Trade online.
