The debut full length release, Album from San Francisco-based, Girls. Album is out September 22nd on a new label working within the Matador family, True Panther Sounds. Find out more about True Panther here: ---true panther--- and here ---True Panther Sounds---
Built on the powerful songwriting of Christopher Owens and the ethereal production of Chet "JR" White, Girls recorded Album in a variety of bedrooms and rehearsal studios in their adopted hometown, San Francisco. The resulting 12 tracks are the perfect San Francisco summer record, evoking a narcotic, sunny afternoon in Dolores Park, yet promising the eventual hangover of summer's departure.
Album is a redemptive song-cycle about the various characters and desires that colour Christopher Owens's life. Described by the band as "honest, loose, ethereal, obnoxious and perfect," it is a sincere tribute to the majesty of great pop music and the healing power of rock and roll.
They are on the cover of the newest issue of The Fader
Girls' core duo, Christopher Owens and Chet "JR" White, are now bolstered by guitarist John Anderson and drummer Garret Godard.
The band recently toured with The Pains of Being Pure At Heart, and are finishing up a run with Los Campesinos! before playing a couple California dates with Cass McCombs in September. Stay tuned for more dates!
