LA act Forebear are back with an exciting sound that you have to hear. When we covered their fantastic self-titled EP last year, we knew they were in an elite class of bands to watch. Made up of some phenomenal musicians who have played with big names like Feist, Bastille, and Keith Urban, the group met in ’14 and have made some of the most interesting music ever since. Blending style and substance, they are able to sound simultaneously familiar and futuristic. For their new album, Good God (Aug. 26th), the band has released a burner of an opener “Delroy Lindo”. Give a listen while reading the lyrics which are helpfully listed on their Soundcloud page. Deep and existential, the band worked with another ETTG favorite Eric Lilavois, who produced the album at the famed London Bridge Studios in Seattle. Lilavois has an ear for indie gems. His resume includes Saint Motel, Atlas Genius, and Macklemore. We are pumped for the new release and will be sure to provide you a solid review when it drops.

About Matt Simon
Matt Simon was raised on classic rock and Neil Diamond, though his tastes have expanded greatly since. It is his strongly held belief that the Midwest produces everything good in this world and will gladly discuss that fact over coffee. All the major events in his life have a soundtrack attached to it like an audio scrapbook. He loves to listen to the likes of Jessica Lea Mayfield and Frank Turner; wishes he was as cool as Josh Homme, and still foolishly believes that Led Zeppelin will reunite. He resides near Cleveland, Ohio.

Dreamy and Expressive New Talent
Juno Roome – “Think You’re Falling” “Think You’re Falling” has an unescapable hip shaking ability we could not ignore. The bass is especially groovy, while the vocals are the perfect amount of smooth. We classify this track in its own category; indie dream, …

Foreign Fields – “Damages” This songwriting duo craft a dreamy sound on “Damages”. This makes sense as the background for the track comes from a dream during a time of personal strain for the artist. It feels ethereal with its recording process and …
