The Postmarks, a Florida-based indie pop sensation, is bringing their act to Tir Na Nog this Wednesday, October 28th. Their latest album, Memoirs at the End of the World, is heavily produced and downright dreamy. Matthew Solarski of Pitchfork rated the new album 7.6, speaking highly of Tim Yehezkely, the Tel Aviv vocalist whose masculine name in no way matches her girlish charm :
Yehezkely, with her limited range and slightly detached delivery, effectively bridges that gap between the music’s indulgent/escapist tendencies and our desire to connect with it despite that distance. With her the Postmarks very well may have found a way to speak to both of the indie pop worlds they once seemed so precariously caught between: an unlikely marriage of craft and unpracticed charm, and a music made for dreamers and by dreamers.
Originally paired with New York’s Brookville, who had to cancel the rest of their tour, The Postmarks will now follow Carrboro’s The Huguenots. With their own catchy hooks and indie pop melodies, The Huguenots are a very appropriate substitution.
The show starts at 11pm, following their regular Quiz night, and for free you can’t beat the price!
