Description
Mamalarky thrive in the in-between, a tri-coastal outfit straddling Atlanta, Austin, and Los Angeles, crafting a sound that feels both meticulously constructed and effortlessly unspooled. Their brand of indie rock is delightfully askew--swirling psych flourishes meet wiry guitar tangents, all anchored by tender, off-kilter hooks that burrow deep. It's music that invites you into its strange little universe, full of inside jokes and late night musings turned into melodic gold.
Their sophomore effort, Hex Key -- marking their Epitaph Records debut-- lands in April, with plenty of mileage ahead as they road test new material. A spring tour includes a run with Hinds and a stop at Treefort Music Fest, where their shape-shifting sonics will no doubt translate into hypnotic, full-bodied chaos.
Formed in Austin in 2016, Mamalarky's lineup has since scattered across time zones, but their chemistry remains unmistakable. Guitarist Livvy Bennett (formerly of Cherry Glazerr), keyboardist Michael Hunter (White Denim), drummer Dylan Hill, and bassist Noor Khan (Faye Webster's touring bassist) operate like a band that's spent years finishing each other's musical sentences. Their songwriting thrives on kinetic interplay-- nimble and restless, yet always landing in some deeply satisfying pocket.
While indie-pop might be the easiest tag to slap on them, Mamalarky dodge the genre's more predictable trappings. Instead of settling into breezy melancholy, they embrace complexity-- knotty time signatures, rubbery basslines, and melodies that feel like they're winking at you. It's heady but never pretentious, the kind of music that rewards repeat listens, each spin revealing a new hidden corner. -
