Today’s Indie: Summerlong / Xylos
‘we can make it like we did all summer long / in the shade while the others all sang along’
This feels good. Brooklyn quintet Xylos presents the perfect summer anthem to stir sweet restlessness into our bones on a Friday afternoon in late June, with fresh vocals and a catching chorus met with blissful synth. While the season no longer grants the months of freedom it did when we were young, it still promises hours outdoors, cold beer, adventure and summer love. Living in a city known for its particularly grey and foggy stretches this time of year still can’t bring me down, especially with a song like this as a backdrop. It glows. #indie / tory
