[on repeat] Citizens!//Caroline EP

Leave a comment

Though this EP was released back in July, I heard it for the first time earlier this afternoon and I am quite smitten.  No joke, i’ve been listening to them, pretty much exclusively, all day.  Composed of Londoners Martyn, Thom, Mike, Lawrence and Tom , Citizens! produces very addictive and imaginative pop music.  The band’s debut LP Here We Are is currently available in UK/EU/AU and will be available here in the US Oct. 8th, courtesy of Kitsuné.  In the meantime, enjoy a few of my favorite tracks and videos below.
