Patio

Essentials Patio

Inspired by classic British post-punk, the songwriting of Cate LeBon, and the close-knit Brooklyn DIY community from which the band first sprouted, Patio now release their long-awaited debut full-length Essentials, a fundamental collection of new music for 2019. Building upon the delicacy of the band's prior work, Essentials presents fuller sounds, heightened emotions, and grander thematic complexity. It's 10 tracks are dark and introspective, yet hopeful, and often humorous from rambling spoken word meditations to sparkling melodies and soaring riffs. Melodramatic and grotesque expressions abound, as do soft, subtle moments of quiet self-examination. Recorded and mixed by Amar Lal (Big Ups, Ovlov) and mastered by Sarah Register (Protmartyr, US Girls)
