The Spring Standards’ yellow//gold, released May 1st on Parachute Shooter Records, is a double-disc record flush with rolling piano, wistful strings, and booming percussion. The two emotionally-charged EPs tell intertwining stories of growing up and leaving home to embark on a new adventure. yellow evokes a sense of nostalgia for the trio’s shared childhoods—they started playing folk music together as teenagers in the rural landscapes of the Pennsylvania/Delaware border— while gold is a declaration of young life in a big city, bursting with energy.
The band will appear at Portland’s Doug Fir Lounge 6/21 and Seattle’s Crocodile Cafe on 6/22.
