]]> Lead by Shane Tanksley, The Strayngers are in the business of lucid dream pop; described by Tanksley as “…ethereal guitar and synth sounds accompany[ing] classic melodic vocals…[with] tight grooviness from the rhythm section.” Let me tell ya, business is a-boomin’ with their new single “I Try,” off of their forthcoming album Existential Sadness.

Nestled amongst the aforementioned ethereal guitar and synth sounds, Tanksley’s voice stuck out the most for me – seemingly drifting amongst the various tracks like a cloud (shaped like a dog, don’t ask me why).

tldr; Fans of a more morose Phoenix or Alvvays would find a lot to enjoy here, Tanksley definitely elevates a crowded field with his impeccable composition and effortlessly delivered vocals. Be sure to check out “I Try” on Spotify or Apple Music, and if you like what you hear be sure to check out their other tracks as well!
