Song of the Day: Sally Shapiro – Sundown

Is the above picture not the most twee promo shot ever? Let’s look at the requirements

1) guy in plaid/flannel? check
2) in a forest/outdoors? check
3) girl in vintage/sun dress? check
4) could this be a screen shot from a wes anderson movie? check

The above pictures belong to that of duo Sally Shapiro, a Swedish act that is surprisingly not on Labrador records (It’s on Paper Bag Records). The duo recently released a delightful record named Somewhere Else. The album is the second record from the duo and given some of the names associated with the record (Anoraak, Electric Youth), you can bet it recalls some of the late 00’s Valerie movement. Laid back synths are a plenty and there’s just a general chilled vibe over this record. One of the highlights is this track – Sundown, which features a sax solo so smooth it makes me want to grow jerry curls. Check it out
