Words: Ellie Ward
LA-based indie-pop five-piece Sleeptalk head up to the release of their EP, 'Desert Daze', out July 26, with a new song, 'dontbesoblue'.
Formed by vocalist Anthony Fitzpatrick and bassist Paul McGill, later joined by guitarists Justin Melchor, Jason Fitzpatrick and drummer Tyler Kusnier, the band makes use of strong haunting hooks that weave into atmospheric melodies.
First single 'dontbesoblue' effortlessly blends the dreamy escapism of synth pop with evocative lyricism, and was one of the first songs they wrote for the record.
"The concept for this song came together when our band was looking to refresh ourselves from previous obligations along with me coming out of a long-term relationship," says Fitzpatrick. "Relationships of any sort can get exhausting at times and get to the point where a fresh start is ultimately needed. This song is about that much needed fresh start and moving forward while finding yourself at the same time.”
Sleeptalk play an EP release show on July 6 at the Moroccan Lounge
in Los Angeles.
