Couch's debut album is out
News
Couch's album puts their distinct retro-soul/pop sound–complete with texturally-rich horns and inviting vocals on full display. The band's signature soundscape is fuller and bigger than ever before with its electric energy, masterful, mostly live instrumentation and raw subject matter that sheds light on the band's lived experiences. Lead guitarist Zach Blankstein says, “'Big Talk' is our reflection on multidimensional love–romantic, platonic, self-love—and the kind of bold, honest connection that comes from shedding small talk and saying what you really mean. It’s moody and nostalgic, but also warm and bright—a soundtrack for that phase in life when things start to click, even if everything’s still a little messy."
"Many of the songs began in our bedrooms or as voice memos and writing sessions between two or three of us, then came to life through a deeply collaborative, full-band process." The band took the new music on the road to test it across Europe with Cory Wong and as they played some of their biggest U.S. shows to date with Lake Street Dive.
