Hippies is one of my favourite albums from the last little while. Harlem have created such a wonderful sound...pretty simple and very classic. It's the perfect update to old blues and soul with just enough fuzz and lo-fi to keep it light and fun. Sometimes I forget that, outside of my world, they're not a well-known band...yet. Considering they're on Matador and made their way onto Casual Victim Pile: Austin 2010, I would guess that Harlem have a lot of really big things in their future.
Listen to "Be Your Baby" from Hippies.
