The Lovely Sparrows Finish Up New EP



I've mentioned The Lovely Sparrows before, when I recieved a 7" promo from them a month or two back and now they've signed to Abandoned Love Records and are ready to release a brand new EP. The new EP, Pulling Up Floors, Pouring On New Paint is scheduled for release by the end of Spring, and is sure to be full of lush, catchy pop songs, like this one, from the upcoming EP.

[MP3]: The Lovely Sparrows :: Chemicals Change
This song doesn't hit quite as hard as the two power-pop gems on the previously 7", but I think that's a good thing. This song is proof that this is a band capable of maturing and playing around with more than one sound to keep things interesting . The track's built around a pretty simple acoustic guitar melody witht he aid of shakers, woodwinds, and some instantly catchy drumming. There's also a line at the beginning of the song that I really love: "My father always said, love is a nice day job, but it wont pay the rent." Ain't it the truth.

Bonus [MP3]: The Lovely Sparrows :: I Have A Need You See

If you're in Austin TX and want something to do thursday night, The Lovely Sparrows will be playing the Ashera Project benefit show at Club Deville along with the Heirs & Things That Go Pop! It's sure to be a great show, plus it's for a good cause so you have no reason to not go, right?
