Allo Darlin’, “Europe” (Slumberland, 2012)
Music from the utmost winsome end of C86-ish pop – gently jangly guitars, feather-soft vocals, bossa-nova/yé-yé-inflected songwriting. What makes this really special is the sharp songwriting and deeply felt performances. They nail the specificity that lets the best of this stuff pull on the heartstrings for real.
