Smith Westerns – Dye It Blonde

20 Jan

Earlier this week Chicago indie rockers Smith Westerns released their second LP Dye It Blonde.  With an upbeat retro rock and pop sound (think 60s and glam rock eras), they kill it with whinny guitar riffs and not complex lyrics to put together a disc full of catchy tunes.  Having been on tour in the past with Girls and MGMT, check this trio out as headliners rather than being known as the supporting act.  Listen to the title track “Weekend” as well as “End of the Night” and “Dance Away.”
