Singing Bridges are an indie pop band from the States. The core members of the band were formerly in Manchester By The Sea.The band also features the people who run the Skipping Stones Records label and who organise the annual Popfest now into it's 5th year. The Sunny Day Rainy Day EP is their début release.
The overall impression of the EP is that this is how The Breeders would sound if they played lo-fi indie pop. It's very harmonic and the shared female vocals, reminiscent of the Deal sisters, gives it a very strong focal point. As for the production you take the rough with the smooth here but I like the coarse sound of the recordings especially on the stand out track On Y Va which is sung entirely in French. At other points in the EP you hear traces of shoegaze, folk and echoes of long forgotten bands all which hopefully point towards the promise and expectation of greater things from the band.

The EP, which is extremely limited, is out now on Skipping Stones Records to be followed by a digital release in April. You can buy it here.
