Description:
¬    The lovely, soaring “Only Skin” opens The Spring Standards’ forthcoming release, yellow//gold.
¬    Comprised of 2 very different EPs, the yellow side is a seven~song collection that ventures through the depths of nostalgia by way of Heather Robb’s hushed vocals and soft melodies. The flip side gold, however, takes a more up~tempo approach in its five~track compilation. As exemplified by James Cleare and James Smith’s edifying “Here We Go,” gold represents a more rollicking journey of youth.
¬    The three members of The Spring Standards grew up along the Pennsylvania/Delaware border and began playing music together in 2008.
¬    Each person plays multiple instruments and sings and their upcoming album explores the range of such musical diversity.

¬    The Spring Standards are a talented trio of musicians hailing from Brooklyn, NY. They have toured the US relentlessly over the past couple of years and are finally releasing a new album in the form of the Yellow//Gold EPs. These New Yorkers play a form of indie folk rock that is both catchy and intriguing in their songwriting. Sometimes the songs sound nothing alike. All three members are multi~instrumentalists and share vocal duties. Not one song on either of these EPs is bad, it just fails in finding a true identity for the band. Each singer holds their own on their respective songs, it just doesn’t flow well when the next song is completely different than the previous.
¬    Heather Robb stands out on EP openers “Only Skin”(Yellow) and “Nightmares” (Gold‘s closing track). “Unmarked Pill” is an epic electro~pop~rock song simliar to a musical rollercoaster ride that peaks and drops, then ends with a jazzy like horn leading a steady drum beat. The Spring Standards sound great when all three members are featured vocally in a song and the sound tends to blend well with the rest of the music. Not a bad album at all, it just takes a little time to get used to.
