The Sandwitches – Over The Moon
Here’s another release that I’ve had for quite a while, but never gave it quite the number of listens or spins that it deserved in the spring. I first heard San Francisco’s the Sandwitches on KALX during a quick juant back to the Bay Area. I loved the haunting quality of their work, which I remember being a bit more lo-fi than this, their third release. The sound is mostly on the midnight dream pop tip, but those vocals are what stick in the mind, heavy country twang and vocalizing but very very distinctive especially in their almost otherworldly harmonies. Their sound might not be for everyone, but it is a fantastic sound as evidenced on “Over The Moon” which seems especially appropriate with the full moon and lunar eclipse tonight.
