The new 7″ single from Mississippi’s Dent May is almost here, and if y’all thought the A-side was good, get a load of the silky smooth “disco-funk jammer” “Eastover Wives,” featuring Charles Roy Washington on sax. Arguably the best thing Dent’s ever done. That Feeling/Eastover Wives is out September 14 on Forest Family. Limited to 1000 copies — the first 500 coming on soft lavender vinyl — with artwork from our multi-talented homie Will Bryant. Both jams were mastered by Rusty Santos, and will likely appear on Dent’s forthcoming Paw Tracks full-length. Download both tracks below, and PRE-ORDER HERE.

“…Dent May just dropped the frustrated married lady’s equivalent to Beyonce’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).”—Speakers in Code

“It feels kind of like what would happen if Jens Lekman scored an episode of Desperate Housewives and then had sex with some of them.  So basically, it’s awesome.”—The Tripwire

Amazing work from the talented hand of Will Bryant. Everything’s in the press and we hope to get this to you before the pools close down.

“It’s an unsettling, alluring, perfect pop song and already one of our favourite singles of the year”—Transparent

PRESS:

“Particularly heart-melting is Gauntlet Hair’s “I Was Thinking,” which is five minutes of cascading guitar bliss and shivery echoing vocals that sound like the wind blowing through your hair down the open road. Someone needs to put it on a movie soundtrack immediately.”

—THE FADER

“…a snowball made of sunlight and wrapped in glass, floating in a hall of reverb. It probably also has a Cadbury Creme center, for all I know”

—STRATOSPHERING

“…delirious, fire-spewing stomper from this Denver-based avant-pop duo…an unstoppable melodic heart that beats like it just ran an Alaskan winter mile in short-shorts…”
