Sam Palladio - The Perfect Summer's Day Before We Lost the Light - VINYL LP

Pinback - Summer in Abaddon [VINYL LP] date 10/12/2004

Sam Blasucci is best known as one half of Mapache, a Southern California roots-rock duo just as instantly recognizable for their elegant, intertwined guitar parts as they are for their devoted, Nudie-Suit wearing fanbase. But when Blasucci was writing the songs that would become his debut solo record, Off My Stars, he found himself less focused on the guitar and more gravitated toward a different instrument piano.The mother of Clay Finch, his Mapache bandmate, was getting rid of one, and so Blasucci took the piano, carefully transporting it to his home in Ojai, California, with the help of a few strong friends, including Farmer Dave Scher of Beachwood Sparks (and a Mapache collaborator). InchFarmer Dave wasn't even wearing shoes,Inch Blasucci remembers, laughing. Once the piano was safely in there, he became deeply attached, playing on it multiple hours a day InchIt's changed the way I think about music, having all the keys laid out in front of me,Inch he explains. InchHaving that sort of changed everything.InchInfused with an honest, personal perspective about settling into adult life-about developing as a person and a partner and a family member-these songs were straight from the heart, a clear window, recently Windexed, into the life of one of the most talented members of the L.A.-area underground rock scene. Using just as much inspiration from the music of Ronnie Wood and Sade as the films of Ingmar Bergman and the writing of Brian Doyle, Blasucci started to see a vision of songs that are all Inchfully autobiographical.Inch1.

Vinyl LP pressing. 2024 from multi-platinum indie pop artist Dayglow. Dayglow - InchDayglowInch / Multi-platinum indie pop artist Dayglow's self-titled project embodies exactly who Sloan Struble is as an artist and acts as a proper introduction into the bright and colorful Dayglow world. The 10-track debut was solely written, performed, recorded, produced and mixed by Struble in his Malibu home studio. He opens up and shares, InchWhen I was 18 years old, I made my mixtape Fuzzybrain. I was a pretty introverted kid from a reasonably small town in Texas, so I didn't expect much to happen 'commercially' for the record - I just made it for my own enjoyment, really. As a fan of the 2010's indie music scene (MGMT, The Strokes, Phoenix, Passion Pit, etc.), I wanted to see what kind of album I could make completely alone in my bedroom. So, out of the quest to make something I loved, Dayglow was born. It was a clear reflection of myself at that time. It was pure, naive, goofy, guitar-driven indie-pop.
