SONG OF THE DAY (#189)

'how to swim and live,' by little name

so, take all the best of belle & sebastian, camera obscura, and burt bacharach and then give it murray lightbottom's vibrato and you get something like little name.

every song from little name's debut album, 'how to swim and live,' is like pulling out sun-faded photographs from boxes hiding in the corners of cobwebby attics. it's where the contemporary meet the nostalgic and have a nice laugh over a cup of team. it's where all the girls have bobs and all the boys wear turtlenecks and burberry scarves. it's where everyone has impeccable taste, still buys vinyl, and dresses up for a night on the town. and right now, that sounds like a pretty nice place to live. little name inhabits such world and has invited us along.

the party begins now...

��� little name: how to swim and live
��� little name: for the attention of
��� little name: nobody loves you
