Good Morning Club’s S/T is light and airy indie rock with some jazzy influence, looking at you intro to the track “Train”. The generally upbeat nature and openness of the band’s instrumentation blends quite nicely with the somber and somewhat melancholic lyrics and vocal delivery on the track “Clara”. The record slows down a little too much for my tastes to an almost R&B like interlude in “Folded Blue”. I understand why you’d want to spice things up with some variety, but this feels less like an interlude and more like an interruption. Also, the vocal distortion toward the end of this track is extremely distracting and really doesn’t work for me. But still, 4 outta 5 pretty good to great tracks. Yeah, I can dig it, where do I sign up for the Good Morning Club?

Hey I want to be a part of this club. I have not had a lot of luck getting into clubs but I think I might have a shot with this one. In this club everything is sepia tone, and people wear suede jackets. I can get behind this good morning. It takes you to wide open spaces with steady rock tunes and endless reverberation. The track “Folded Blue” felt like a bit of an outlier but I appreciated the stripped back sound to finish out the album.

synthesized boy vocals to ethereal smooth jazz. I dig the track ‘Fallout’ because it has a mood like the soundtrack to CW’s ‘The OC’.

Good Morning Club wraps you in a comfy, beachy wall of sound that never lets up in this quick 21 minute EP. “Train” opens the project and sets the tone, both thematically and rhythmically–flowing between a mixture of Anderson Paak interlude and Tame Impala. Ethan Bailey’s vocals float effortlessly above and weave in and out of the jazzy undertones painting on to the classic two and four drum beats underneath. Overall–a ton of potential avenues for GMC, particularly enjoyed “Folded Blue” which showed off a deeper range for Bailey and co.
