- The Needle Drop: Girls
- From
- WNPR
This week's podcast features Girls. They're a Cali duo who like to play it safe. Their debut album, titled Album, isn't groundbreaking or adventurous, but it is catchy. Pulling heavily from bros like Elvis Costello, Wreckless Eric, and the Beach Boys, this album was classic before it was pressed.
We've also got new tracks from Wildbirds & Peacedrums, Islands, and Alvin Band.
