Is/Is

Add Date: February 22 

Artist: Is/Is 

Album: This Happening (EP) 

Label: Guilt Ridden Pop 

Genre: Rock 

Comments: Feedback-heavy guitar pop from the trio Is/Is on their debut EP, This Happening. Sarah Nienaber (of Gospel Gossip), Sarah Rose and Mara Appel have drawn comparisons to late '80s/early '90s underground heroes like Black Tambourine, Galaxie 500 and Spacemen 3, and the likening to Hope Sandoval's vocals in Mazzy Star is inevitable.

A very promising start. All four songs on This Happening are worth your time, but my favorite was lead track "So Long."
