The latest single from Church Ladies, “Wonder Girl” leads with a breezy rock appeal — taking inspiration from early ’00s garage-rock. “She’s my wonder girl,” the vocals admit during a lusher sequence, where pit-pattering percussion and mellow keys adorn the smitten vocal entrancement. Punchier, distortion-friendly rock energy compels thereafter, into an organ-touched dose of psychedelia in the final minute. “Wonder Girl” is a satiating, hooky success from Church Ladies.
