Dappled Cities Fly or is it just Dapples Cities now? I have no idea, but i’ve been kinda hooked on this Aussie indie-pop quartet for a couple of weeks now. This came from listening to “Fire Fire Fire”, one of the first singles on their sophomore album Granddance that was released last year in Australia only. Don’t fret though as the album will be making it’s US debut sometime in June. So expect to hear a lot more about these guys as they also raised some awareness by performing at SXSW as well.
When I had a chance to listen to the album I was hoping to expect more tracks that were along the same lines as “Fire Fire Fire” but what I got were songs that had a very quirky creativeness to them and like some descriptions of the sound was indeed very Shins-like. Not to say that I was disappointed with this, but it just caught me by surprise. Suffice to say, if you like jangly indie-pop than look no further than Dappled Cities as they’ll fill in that need quite nicely.
