"A Californian band who come across like a West Coast Belle and Sebastian. Their indie pop is sassy and smart, intelligent and intricate, twee with bite." -- The Guardian The Corner Laughers are timeless, but far from “retro”: Yes, you will detect strains of English folk-psych, vintage California sunshine pop and hints of alt-country twang. You may be reminded of the literate lyrics and soaring melodies of '80s titans like XTC, Kirsty MacColl and Robyn Hitchcock, or '90s indie chamber pop. Karla Kane's lilt and uke might even lead one to expect a postmodern YouTube sensation (make no mistake, she was there first). With the exception of that last one, none of those touchstones are, strictly speaking, off base. But they're not why a Corner Laughers record will leave you feeling temporally displaced in an eerily giddy manner. That's down to the songs, built upon what Icon Magazine calls a “nigh-on-perfect fusion of bubblegum-sweet tunefulness and clever, subtly barbed lyrics.” Their music plays with micro and macro lenses, connecting detailed personal experiences with the cosmic scale. Expect to encounter bees in harmony, ghosts, fallen leaves and omniscient vultures. Current issues meet ancient echoes. Moods meander between wistful melancholy and exhilaration. A simple walk home becomes an entire universe encapsulated in a moment. To quote one of its songs, “It’s alright to care.”
