You can't imagine how many press releases we receive at the Ripple with requests for us to post a link to a free download of a new single. In truth, if we attempted to post all these, we'd have no room left for any reviews. So usually, we delete them and wait for the full albums to review.
Not today.
I was so impressed with the new single from the bi-coastal sensation, Chief that I just had to get this song up for your consumption. Though Evan Koga, Mike Moonves and brothers Danny and Michael Fujikawa were all born and raised as sons of Los Angeles, it was on New York stages that they honed their songs and found their sound. A thoughtfully melodic update on summer and road records past. Natural, timeless songwriting for times that change too quickly. Give it a listen, it just may become your favorite song of the summer.
Their album, Modern Rituals comes out Aug. 17th, and I for one, can't wait. The boys are touring also, so if you like the song, go see em live.
