Jimmy Whispers - The Search for God - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Search for God is a wake-up call for a troubled world that's still worth saving, animated by a belief in the power of small connections to add up to big changes. Jimmy Whispers' long-awaited sophomore album was created in the wake of COVID isolation, and returns to some teen influences out of step with the chill/lo-fi LA indie rock scene he's found himself lumped in with. After embracing sobriety, and now as a filmmaker sharing the stories of lesser known Los Angeles community members, he's brought his dreaming down to earth, while turning it's direction even further out. Created mostly with two vintage synths, a single Roland CR5000 drum machine, and a busted karaoke machine, it channels Midwestern emo, the Beach Boys' Smile, subtle nods at hyper-pop production, and forgotten jewel-box era college radio of the early aughts into a pure pop sound that transcends easy categorization.1.
