Famous Friend – “Nora”
Los Angeles based writer/producer/artist Zachariah Carlson a.k.a Famous Friend (check our previous feature on them here) returned to the spotlight last year with the viral sensation “Tanlines.” Carlson has tapped into his indie pop muse again for the new single “Nora,” a brooding, sun-bleached surf pop track. The new song is a pink-hued heat haze, featuring bubbling bass that pairs with programmed drum beats that staccato with a aerosol chill. Carlson wields atmosphere masterfully as he hooks you with washed out guitar melodies and a chorus that is eerie and romantic. You’ll easily find yourself bobbing along with “Nora’s” chorus belting out the line “Been trying to ignore Nora, put your hands my neck but I can’t help but adore ya…”. Fans of Wallows, The Drums, Dayglow, Chromatics, or Magnetic Fields can find lots to love on this track. Listen to the new single “Nora” from Famous Friend on Youtube[...]
