FRANKIIE – “GARDEN”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
Today Vancouver indie-pop outfit Frankiie announce the forthcoming release of their sophomore LP, Between Dreams, due out June 3rd via Paper Bag Records. The first single from the EP is also out today, titled βGardenβ and accompanied by a live performance music video.
“‘Garden’ was inspired by writing retreats to the northern Sunshine Coast of BC where we could detach from the intensity of urban life and focus on music together,β says keyboardist and vocalist Nashlyn Lloyd of the single. βWe would write all afternoon in the cabin, and take a break to slow down and watch the stars expand forever. The stillness I feel while listening to the ocean or being surrounded by trees is always something I am longing to reconnect with while living life in the city.”
The upcoming LP is psychedelic in the way that makes the best works of psychedelia timeless, existential, and exciting. The recordβs sonic world, which weaves between reverb-soaked dream-pop, vintage classic-rock, bedroom-psych, and beachy shoegaze, presents the dreamy and the real as one continuum between which there are no borders, and where magic abounds all over.
