How do you a man’s groggy Wednesday better? New music from Ra Ra Riot of course. The band has just released “Boy”, the first single from new album The Orchard for free download on their website.
“Boy” features a pretty fat bassline. Everything else comes together in typical Ra Ra Riot fashion. Delicious strings from Ra Ra Riot’s lovely ladies, strong drumming, and ridiculously clean vocals from Mr. Wes Miles. From the sound of it, seems like their playing has gotten tighter. These guys prove once again why they are arguably one of the best young bands around, period.
