Today is release day for NYC’s GRAMERCY ARMS, whose Americana-tinged single ‘Yesterday’s Girl’ is a bittersweet remembrance of love lost and friendship regained. Co-written by music legend LLOYD COLE and Gramercy Arms frontman DAVE DERBY, their third full-length LP will be released via Montclair, NJ-based Magic Door Record Label in early 2023. Produced, recorded and mixed by RAY KETCHEM (Guided By Voices, Luna, Elk City), this album was mastered by award-winning engineer GREG CALBI (John Lennon, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Talking Heads, Patti Smith, Tom Petty).
The Spill Magazine says this is “Gentle and perfectly arranged, it is both calming and genuine, straightforward and talented, giving space and voice everywhere that the song and its story requires… clearly at a different level of musical maturity.. A hidden Americana-indiepop gem, Gramercy Arms show that music truly is a journey”. DOWNLOAD THE SINGLE / PRESS KIT (via Google Drive)
I also present you Gramercy Arms member JESSIE KILGUSS, whose indie-folk / Americana-flavored style is endearing, confessional and rich in storytelling. Her ‘What Do Whales Dream About at Night?’ LP involves producer ADAM LASUS (Yo La Tengo, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Helium), CHARLIE NIELAND (Debbie Harry, Rufus Wainwright, Blondie), BRIAN GRIFFIN (Patti Smith, Brandi Carlisle, Lana Del Rey), WHYNOT JANSVELD (The Wallflowers, Butch Walker, Sara Bareilles) and NATHAN SCHRAM (Bjork, David Crosby, David Byrne).
