And We Wake Up Slowly

Brooklyn's finest new young band and their impressive debut album And We Wake Up Slowly. Written in a sweaty Brooklyn basement and recorded in a giant, creaky barn in upstate New York overshadowed by the Catskill Mountains, these songs are brought to life by panoramic production, layers of new-found sounds, and the sweet satisfaction of cooking your dinner outside under the stars.

After The Jaguar Club's reprieve in the depths of the wilderness, they confidently entered into Marcata Recordings and laid down 13 tracks under the guidance of Kevin McMahon (French Kicks, The Walkmen, Titus Andronicus, DieDieDie, Frightened Rabbit). This resulted in an amazing amalgamation of tracks propelled forward by Jeremiah Joyce's explosive percussion and Yoichiro Fujita's strong bass-lines with vocals that soar and uplift you courtesy of singer/guitarist Will Popadic's penetrating voice (comparable to that of Morrissey) combined with a lyrical styling reminiscent of David Byrne.
