Hmm... Sylvan Esso

Sylvan Esso is breaking a period of relative quiet with the arrival of 'Hot Slob' and a fresh North American tour run. Since forming in Durham in 2013, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn have maintained a specific tension between folk-rooted vocal melodies and modular synth grit. This new signal suggests they aren't retreating into legacy act status; instead, they’re doubling down on the quirky, percussive pop that originally carved out their space on Partisan Records. Watch how this single lands—it’s the litmus test for their next era.
