Wisconsin-based duo hangouts. charm on their new single “No Money, Drugs,” a dazed and twangy success birthed from a “spontaneous jam” in “the 420 lounge.”
“I’m not saying it’s right, but sometimes…” the vocals let out during the memorable central hook, uplifted by a soaring vocal whimsy with title-touting engrossment. A deeper-toned, conversational punctuation follows into a serene guitar solo. The diverse vocal showings, from debonair commiseration to higher-pitched ascension, consumes alongside the jangly guitar hypnotics.
The band describe the release as “a tongue and cheek song about how the stress of $$ (or lack there of) creates the need for medication, legal and illegal.”
