NEWS - Moody Synths & Sizzling, Warbled Guitars - The Velveteins New Album
Soaked in the bright psychedelia of the 1960's and dipped in the indie rock explosion of the new millennium, The Velveteins are best described as a bridge between the two. Inspired after living out of a camper van on the beaches of Australia for a year, frontman Spencer Morphy returned to Canada and started the band with co-songwriter Addison Hiller in 2014. Later joined by Dean Kheroufi, Daniel Sedmak and Cam O'Neill, the fivesome have since made a name for themselves for their incendiary live performances. Their collection of records through the years captures youthful energy, and experimentations with surf tinged indie guitar pop.
Declarations of the 3am Freeway is the sophomore full-length from the band. Inspired by dusk, while driving in a battered motor vehicle on the cusp of a great adventure, the album is backdropped with moody synths and sizzling warbled guitars.
The album took five years to write, as the band took charge of production and left their Canadian label. The songs were recorded, and then re-recorded multiple times in a plethora of different recording studios, each song chiseled out from its unsophisticated inception to form a more defined pearly essence.
