State Shirt – This is Old
It’s late. You’ve got a big cup of coffee and you’re settling in for some coding/conversation/driving. What would make the picture even better: “This is Old”, the new album by State Shirt.
Ethan Tufts, the man who is State Shirt, achieves shimmering Beach Boys-worthy harmonies on “Time To Go” and “Fell Out of the Sky”. The title song seems to channel Franz Ferdinand, while “Computer” evokes the Scissor Sisters. State Shirt has found a way to blend these familiar-feeling elements with his own new take on instrumentation and lyrics to create an album that’s fresh-sounding but also comfy as your favorite sweatshirt.
