Release Notes:



Chirpy vocal melodies, multi-part harmonies, fractured vignettes and

ADD-arrangements that sometimes seem to combine a handful of different songs

into one represent Thinks and Feels, the channel-surfing-esque new LP from

Phoenix five-piece band What Laura Says.



Expertly skipping from bluesy gospel laments to Beach Boy-influenced pop to

jaunty piano-rock to molasses funk brews over the eleven-cut collection, What

Laura Says' expansive musical base is about as dumb-founding as their moniker,

but their quirky concoctions provide a pleasant-filled conundrum to bear witness

to; and when it's all over, you'll definitely be an instant fan, wracking your

brain to figure out a way to explain their fresh, idiosyncratic style to your

closest friends.



For better understanding, it'd be simple to tag them as being an experimental

act, but don't take that into meaning that they're one of those annoyingly

oblique artsy-fartsy collectives. No, their material can be quite accessible,

especially since even when they threaten to waver in too many various directions

at once (like the nearly oft-putting curioso "Couldn't Lose Myself If I Tried"

or the ten minute suite "Done What's Right"), they usually drop some sweet

doo-wop vocal inter-play or grab onto a catchy instrumental jam somewhere in the

proceedings to successfully win the listener over.



If you're not yet sold on something that's growing far too challenging to hype

in writing, head on over to their website and take a listen to individual cuts

like the child-like "Wish I Could Fly", peppy friend-in-distress ode

"Illustrated Manual" or the soul-flavored tranquilizer "July 23", and they

should pique your interest enough to investigate Laura further.



Thinks and Feels will be available on August 19th through Terpsikhore. For more
