SMALLWIRE
SONGS FOR SLEEPING IN (JAPANESE IMPORT)

MOORWORKS

Chicago's SMALLWIRE caught our attention a few years back with their self-released e.p. "Death of a Snowflake." Since then, they've been slowly crafting this very strong debut album. The most striking quality of the group is the rich & ethereal vocal harmonies that recall bands such as LUSH & STEREOLAB. The arrangements are sparse & restrained with the rhythm section sometimes sitting out almost entire songs. There's a maturity to the songwriting here that bands often don't hit upon until their third or fourth release. Along with the 1900s & SCOTLAND YARD GOSPEL CHOIR, SMALLWIRE are paving the way for a new wave of orchestral pop groups in Chicago. If you like BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE, GALAXIE 500, Slumberland bands etc... then this is an album you really need to hear.

Available at: Broadway and Milwaukee Ave.
