That was a pleasant surprise on the first day of autumn of this year: Another Summer, the full-length debut album by UK dream pop outfit The Surely Knots was released. It’s a musical project by longtime friends Fred Spence and Dylan Evans Hutchison, who recorded seven original tunes with the help of Polly Ruppel, Sam Seccombe, Zach Ockmore, Jake Searle and Max Elliott. They play folky indie pop influenced by the psychedelic ’60s, on the musical spectrum hovering somewhere between Jens Lekman, Belle and Sebastian and Bright Eyes. You’ll hear wonderful, heartfelt songs about friends, love, and peace, with exciting structures, a rich instrumentation and compelling vocal harmonies. Another Summer adds color to your autumn.
Another Summer is out now digitally (self-released). Add to wantlist: Bandcamp
