‘Boats‘ is the latest musical export from Dublin duo Conor and Eimer Devlin aka [The] Caseworker. The duo aren’t famed for their rapid record production averaging a release every 2-3 years but the results are timeless and tender with an easy- breezy, drive-time escapism feel.
Indeed the inspiration for this came from driving over San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge and it’s not hard to see why; just listen to the track for a few seconds and you’ll instantly be transported to feeling like your in the backseat of a car staring out onto a bluish grey day as buildings and that glorious bridge cross your window pane.
The duo’s vocals fuse beautifully on this track to create an androgynous output that so economical it’s soothing and although they don’t often veer off on any unexpected curves, it is if nothing else, perfectly peaceful indie pop, and well worth a listen.
‘Boats‘ is out now on Indiecater Records.
