NEWS - Debut album "Five Star Life" from X Confidence
Produced by San Francisco East Bay's acclaimed Gawain Matthews, Five Star Life showcases a rich blend of nostalgic and contemporary sounds across seven meticulously crafted new original tracks, along with two previously released singles and a striking cover of Foo Fighters' "Learn to Fly." Blending synth-based new wave, alt-pop, and rock influences, the album is the result of a year-long collaboration between keyboardist Robin Schaffner and guitarist Bob Pittman, whose songwriting chemistry breathes life into each track.
X Confidence is a sumptuous, retro blend of 80s synth, 2000s groove and today's sensibilities, smooth at one turn and soulful at the next. Equal parts vibrant & dreamy, X Confidence is the girl who got away, the guy that stood you up, the lover who left while you were still sleeping. It's longing, lustrous and a little coy, all wrapped in a neat, shiny package of tasty rhythms and hook-laden melodies. X Confidence plays synth-based Indie pop/rock.
