Genuine Leather Premieres Rollicking Single “Blossom Child of the Southern Sun”
After a year of song writing and production, local indie act Genuine Leather is premiering their new single “Blossom Child of the Southern Sun.” This hot track’s off of Genuine Leather’s upcoming LP Brunch, due for release this summer, and we’re super excited to be the first to share it with y’all today.
Formed in 2011 by Chris Galis, Genuine Leather emerged on the Austin scene around that time with their song “The Viper,” and they’ve been planning the release of Brunch for some time now. “Blossom Child of the Southern Sun” is a rollicking fusion of influences that is equal parts Nada Surf and Band of Horses, with a healthy dose of garage-rock psychedelia thrown in to boot. Using distinctive guitar riffing as the back-bone of the track, the song sways with a lackadaisical 90s alternative feel that effortlessly breaks into melodic choruses.
Genuine Leather is about to reintroduce themselves to Austin and elsewhere with this nostalgically familiar and deeply infectious sound, so be one of the early listeners by hitting that play button below.
