There is something about summer days and indie pop which go together like bread and butter and the latest release on Wee Pop emphasises this to a tee.One Happy Island are an indie pop band from Boston and their Secret Party That The Other Party Doesn't Know About hits the indie pop nail on the head. The EP contains all the necessary ingredients which gets the mix just just right - jangling guitars, hand claps, girl/boy vocals and that oh so fine lo-fi sound. It's oh so twee and you know how much I hate that word but here it's totally appropriate in it's use.
Highlights for me are the sheer joy that is Temporary Tattoo and it's tale of unicorn tattoo induced smiles and the ukulele driven Shorthand with "the rain coming down like Morse Code".
Songs for indie pop picnickers everywhere"
The EP is produced by Colin Clary (Smittens, Magogs) and Steve Williams (Magogs, My First Days on Junk) and is available in the usual 3" CD format. It's also available as Wee Pop's first ever 7" vinyl single release as luscious blue vinyl. Buy from here.
