We don't keep secrets...

I stumbled over this new band and debut album simply because it comes from the home of Secretly Canadian. I have a real label crush over these guys who have released the albums of Jason Molina, Richard Swift, Yeasayer and War On Drugs to name a few. So here is a new signing and a record produced by Richard Swift who recently put a little extra sheen on Foxygen's debut long player. So the band are Cayucass: Pronounced "ky-yook-us" and it's called Bigfoot and it sounds like summers coming. It's a short album so it's like a summer coming to Glasgow! Around 31 minutes of mostly familiar indie American territory in the vein of Vampire Weekend or Local Natives. I've listened to Bigfoot a good few times while working my days away in a vegan cafe and it really has some nice moments. It's consistent, though overall the style takes no departures from the 'Hey', 'Ho' tropical guitar rhythms which today's indie pop never seems to tire of. On 'High School Lover' however, the first single from the album and my favorite Cayucas make summer reminiscing an art. Enjoy, sun or no sun...
