7/26/2023 0 Comments Deep purple full discography![]() Recording remotely over the past year from their respective homes, The Wombats have been working hard to produce some of the most captivating, inventive and forward-thinking music of their career to date. Blue is blue: a color, a feeling, a signifier, a way of looking at the world. But make no mistake: in that abstraction there is intense clarity. Blue is a vast record, with lyrics that bend towards abstraction. And all of it comes back to those Newman works: Purr makes music that functions like those large-scale paintings so very saturated with color. Who Is Afraid Of Blue? also exists lightly in conversation with a short novel Callahan wrote (forthcoming via Catapult, 2024), an auto-fiction document of a woman losing her hearing. It is an omnivorous record-you can hear glimmers of Aimee Mann, Radiohead, the Cocteau Twins which is fitting because Blue is in some ways a record of their process of falling in love with music all over again. Sonically, Who Is Afraid Of Blue? isn’t beholden by genre. “It’s a really hermetic record,” says Staffen, “which ended up feeling really special.” Ranging from Barbara Loden’s Wanda, to Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia, to Dr. While they recorded, they screened movies. Programmed drums on an 808, that kind of thing. This was during Omicron, so they kept recording small, just the three of them in a room for most of the time. To make it, the duo teamed up with their close friend, producer Jonathan Rado (Weyes Blood, Father John Misty, The Killers), whom they worked with on ‘Like New.’ They went to his North Hollywood studio, a small building behind his home. Purr introduced themselves to the world with a 2018 single, “Bad Advice” b/w “Painted Memory,” that showed off their talents as both writers and vocalists, and they further refined their style on their first full-length album, 2020’s Like New and continue that on forthcoming album Who Is Afraid Of Blue? The two previously worked together as Jack + Eliza, but while that project emphasized spare and stripped-down accompaniment, Purr’s recordings feature a fuller sound with a larger palette of instrumental flavors that often references ‘60s pop. ![]() Home Again: Carole King Live In Central Park Īn indie pop duo whose music has a cool retro vibe buoyed by smooth melodies, a naturalistic sound, and warm harmonies, Purr is a collaboration between songwriters, musicians, and longtime friends Eliza Barry Callahan and Jack Staffen.
