New Music: The Static Trees

 

The Static Trees: the music is nostalgic and familiar, and yet there’s something strangely alien about this duo.  Their song’s have got that 60′s Stones-Beatles-Dylan flavor, but they’re elevated by dual layers of both modern and post-modern appeal.

Their chill aesthetic and bluesy-funky sound is at once totally derivative and 100% unlike anything else.  Perhaps it’s just such an electric mix of so many classic influences that I wish I had heard it before.

Check out the video for “Come On,” the first single off their new album Necessary Risks.
