Introducing: Ski Lodge


Bright, jangly guitar pop always gets my attention, and I love to share.  So today we are introducing our readers to Brooklyn's Ski Lodge.  The four-piece was formed in 2011, and released an EP in the fall of that year.  They are finishing an album to be released later this year, but currently are baking in the Texas heat of SXSW.

In mid-April Ski Lodge will release the single "Just To Be Like You" on Dovecote Records.  You can stream it below.  I hear a bit of Glasgow's iconic Orange Juice. and the Smiths in their upbeat moments, in this tune, and that is a resemblance that will keep me interested in the album.
