"It's Who Makes The Scene" by Sad-Eyed Beatniks

 

We told you that Ten Brocades by Sad Eyed Beatniks is going to be a very good album. Did you believe us? Admittedly the album won't be out until next week so you are entitled to reserve judgement regarding our opinion, but the just released third single "It's Who Makes The Scene" should tip the balance in our favor. Following the sweet folk pop of "You Belong With Us" and the languid, summery shuffle of "Monumental Ensemble", this new single is rumbling, mid-tempo burner that spins a story reminiscent of Dylan's early electric period. We loved the other two, but this one may be our favorite so far.

Sad Eyed Beatniks is Kevin Linn, who runs Paisley Shirt Records when not being the sad eyed beatnik. On Ten Brocades Kevin is assisted by Cindy/Flowertown mates Karina Gill and Mike Ramos. Ten Brocades LP is due July 12 in digital and vinyl formats via Meritorio Records.
