Jumping in with a brand new single, listen to Nashville quartet Blonde Bones squeeze the last few drops out of summer on "Hotel Swimming Pool" — now streaming exclusively at The Big Takeover.
A cannonball of psychedelic indie rock and jangle pop that approaches Mac Demarco, Ben Kweller, and Beach Fossils, it's another big splash from the Tennessee outfit and their aptly named Swimming Pool EP — set to arrive this Friday via The Record Machine.
Blonde Bones originally began as the project of Christian Barnett and Joe Reb while studying music and performing arts at the University of Tennessee. Their quirky lyrics and memorable melodies quickly built a buzz on campus and around town before evolving into a four-piece with the addition of Daniel Ryan and Jacob Carey.
On debut LP, Hiding Out, the group worked with producer Damon Moon (Curtis Harding, Dinner Time, Bathe Alone) at his Atlanta-based studio Standard Electric Recording Co. The album was released in February 2020 just before the pandemic hit — which ultimately allowed the band to continue sessions with Moon, resulting in the forthcoming EP.
