Keep Shelly in Athens
“Fractals”
Digital Single
When the Athens duo announced the departure of original vocalist Sarah P back in January, I assumed that it would be the last I’d hear from the dream poppers. Surprise, surprise, just 11 months later, they’re back with composer RΠЯ joined by new vocalist, Myrtha. “Fractals” sees the re-tooled group staying in their windswept, Balearic pop lane with Myrtha’s celestial vocals beautifully framed by washes of reverb, nu-wave bass, and some taut, The Edge-style guitar licks. The track is a solid addition to that “Dreaming of Summer” playlist you play to get through the winter, and it’s an exciting new beginning for the still-promising group.
