wolfbabycup – “The Last First Time”
Minnesota based duo wolfbabycup brings us their latest single “The Last First Time.” Made up of Gerard Garramone and Wendy Sorquist, I’m reminded immediately of Beach House as a close comparison as far as sound and composition goes.
Written after hearing of the passing of a good friend’s mother, they wrote it as a “vision for her next chapter, a wish that she can start over but with the hope that this time it will be lasting and fulfilling.” This synth forward track is appropriately mournful yet hopeful and combines with the electric drums for a dirge-tinged atmosphere. Sorquist’s vocals simmer below the surface of the droning synths, but still manage to cut through to make you feel something… and we buffaBLOGgers are all about our feelings.
You can hear “The Last First Time” below from YouTube, or over on the band’s Spotify page. Be sure to check out the smattering of singles they’ve released over the past couple years if you’ve enjoyed what you heard today!
