Birthed in the illustrious Nashville, Tennessee, *repeat repeat is a collaboration of three musicians with disparate backgrounds. Jared Corder, the band\u2019s frontman, was originally from California and grew up listening to punk-rock. Andy Herrin, the drummer, is a 90\u2019s music aficionado. The group is rounded out by Jared\u2019s wife, Kristyn; she features on the keyboard and vocal harmonies and was raised on 60\u2019s tunes.<\/p>\n
Floral Canyon<\/em> is the group\u2019s second album, following Bad Latitude in 2014. This new release carries on the band\u2019s signature sound, which they dub \u201csurf rockcandy.\u201d The elements of the members\u2019 musical upbringings are evident in their unique discography; the songs feature shredding surf guitar riffs, 60\u2019s pop vocal harmonies and organ progressions, and a healthy dose of garage rock undertones. While the instrumentation is quite impressive, the lyrics and vocals prevent this album from being extraordinary; both are, in a word, generic. Despite the disparity in quality between the singing and the rest of the music, however, the songs remain engaging and enjoyable.<\/p>\n The album is whimsically eccentric and fun. Featuring quirky 60\u2019s show soundbites and psychedelic interludes, the record transforms into something greater than a simple track list. Floral Canyon<\/em> is an exhibition, a multi-dimensional piece of art encased in vibrant packaging. Every listen feels like a top-down summer drive from the beaches of California to the deserts of the Southwest. This is an album you\u2019ll have on *repeat repeat in your head for months. A groovy mix of 60’s pop, surf rock, and garage that will keep you feeling upbeat and summery all year round.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20842,"featured_media":64920,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3235,181],"tags":[7715,7716,7712],"class_list":["post-62557","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-music-reviews","category-rock-rotation","tag-repeat-repeat","tag-floral-canyon","tag-jaya-chakka"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/floral-canyon-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62557","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20842"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62557"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62557\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64920"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62557"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62557"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62557"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
