New Releases: Pleasant Grove - The Art of Leaving

[DudeAsInCool]

Another hip band from Bad Man Records:

Pleasant Grove - The Art of Leaving

Pleasant Grove so named for a Dallas, Texas suburb, was formed by co-vocalists / guitarists Bret Egner and Marcus Striplin. They were drawn together by a vision to write and play music that captured raw melancholy melodies laid out over slow spacious rhythmic harmonies. The Art of Leaving is a mesmerizing set of songs - gut-wrenching, sophisticated, built up from the barest arrangement to an often explosive climax- while echoing dense layers of sound and devices. Available through our site now. In stores in early May

Here's a sampler - pretty catchy tune:
