Listen: Frog - "Judy Garland" [Premiere]
New York City's Frog - an indie-country duo of Dan Bateman and Thomas White, not a squelchy amphibian - are sharing new single "Judy Garland" exclusively on Best Fit.
Named after the famous Wizard Of Oz actress, "Judy Garland" weaves together lilting vocal scales, glottal stops, falsettos and all manner of intriguing vocal tricks. As well as the mouth-based element, the track also features a blinding rhythm section, banjo background and lo-fi fuzz. It's a wonderfully energetic, infectious summer tune, and despite sounding ever-so-slightly menacing at points, it's deliciously sweet for the most part.
Kind Of Blah is out 25 May on Audio Antihero, and you can pre-order it here. Benjamin Shaw has provided the artwork.
