New York’s Callers (Don Godwin, Sara Lucas and Ryan Seaton) and New Jersey’s Delicate Steve (Steve Marion / Luaka Bop Records) got together to record the infectious ‘Further Out’ and ‘Perfect Pairs’.
The collaborative 7″ featuring these two tracks is due out on February 7th via Western Vinyl and you can pre-order it here.
According to the press release, “Further Out” is a disjointed narrative about hotels and their occupants, left to tie up loose ends as life rockets past them, while “Perfect Pairs” explores the difficulties of maintaining relationships within relationships within relationships.”
Here’s what Delicate Steve said about the collaboration:
“I met Sara through some mutual friends at a Deerhoof concert last year. Soon after that I checked out her band (on myspace!!) and was really into it. I sent her an idea I had for a song while on tour, then we met for a minute during SXSW, saw each other’s bands, and talked about making a song when we were both home from tour. Next we met up at Michael Azerrad’s “Our Band Could Be Your Life” concert in NY where our bands were both playing. I had an awesome time in the mosh pit with Ryan. A week or two later we started recording “Perfect Pairs” together with Don Godwin behind the board. Shortly after that, we made “Further Out” collaborating back and forth in our home studios.”
‘Further Out’ is utterly amazing and addictive, I’ve been listening to it over and over again.
Here it is.
