As someone in NYC during whatever the "hipster" period was, ok, the Lumineers existed, but what I saw on a weekly basis was more like this Oxford Collapse. Sweaty, sloppy in the best way, not focused on commercial success, and above all exuberant. There was nothing wrong with it.
Narrowly lost to the sands of time, these Oxford Collapse 7"s and comp tracks have finally been uploaded to streaming services (compiled here into an album-length playlist). Listen for the first or millionth time and enjoy every sandwich!

@SpliffSpace62 @3PickupMusicMan This is "The Only Bay." He was in my son's 3rd grade class last year. Super nice kid, amazing player, and great at soccer, too!

@nakedfoul@BobbyLeeBoogie Picked up AV's "White Winds" from '84 recently and it scratches the new age/eastern/soundtrack itch quite well. Caverna Magica is from the year prior and has a cooler cover, almost proto-dungeon synth, but still both smooth and plucky. Czech it out!
