Sugar Soap – “Living Uptown”
“Living Uptown” is the latest from Australian indie pop band Sugar Soap and we couldn’t be happier to hear it at the Blog. A band we covered a few years ago (here), we’ve missed a couple releases since then but not on purpose (it’s been a weird four years).
The band has definitely grown, but not in a drastically different way (that I could hear at least – just the little things). 2020’s Like Minds was a bit more in your face and definitely rocks, while “Living Uptown” brings a sort of beachy/bedroom pop vibe that we’re all about. Don’t mistake that for not being energetic and fun though, the drums and guitar drive this track forward with some synth interludes to mix things up (plus some wacky effects throughout). If you put the Arctic Monkeys on a beach and made them listen to the Beach Boys for a couple days, you might get something like this.
You can hear “Living Uptown” over on YouTube, Spotify, or Soundcloud.
