Los Colognes Premieres New Track "Unspoken"; Third Album The Wave Out May 12, 2017
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Nashville quintet Los Colognes will release their third album The Wave on May 12th via Big Deal Media / Thirty Tigers. The band just premiered their track "Unspoken" at Consequence of Sound, who said "it's an Americana slow-burner like The War on Drugs sans the hazy psychedelia, calming even as it beckons you to actively adjust the way you interact with your surroundings." With the premiere the band announced an extensive list of upcoming tour dates, including shows in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Nashville, and Seattle. The band is also confirmed for Sasquatch and Lockn' Festivals.

One of the highest and rarest aspirations in popular music is to reach for the transcendental, to access the spirit. On The Wave, Los Colognes succeeds at this - in breaking through the confines of everyday pop song lyricism to tell a holistic story. It's not a concept piece, but it's a brooding and joyful song cycle filled with philosophical rumination, effortless hooks, inspiring musicianship, and expansive arrangements. It's an album perfectly suited of the current zeitgeist of unease and hope.

Stereogum announced the album in January with a premiere of "Flying Apart." Guitarist/singer Jay Rutherford opines in the song - "Nobody believed / We're all just hoping / Floating down streams." It's a song that invokes "the wave" metaphor of the album's title, while churning through its own sonic sea of shimmering keyboards and guitars anchored by drummer Aaron Mortenson. The music evokes any of the best moments of late seventies or mid eighties FM radio while never being weighed down by the specter of influence. Los Colognes are a young band who have managed to forge their own sound while channeling the best sonic worlds of the decades past. Though The Wave is firmly planted in a retro pop/rock sound, the band has some deep Americana roots, and has backed up artists like Margo Price, Rayland Baxter, Caitlin Rose, Nikki Lane, Jonny Fritz, Andrew Combs, Erin Rae and more.

Unlike the live approach used to record the group's previous records, The Wave was built from the ground up with attention to each part. There is a certain economy of space in the songs that feels deliberate, while never ceasing to be warm and inclusive. Guitar and keyboard lines drift off each other in between lyrical exchanges while Mortenson propels the beat, sometimes meditative, sometimes driving.
The journey to finish recording The Wave was its own quest for Rutherford and Mortenson, a more deliberate process of creation and craft that shows a band becoming fully aware of its voice and its vision. Los Colognes have given us a singular collection of quietly anthemic tunes held together by philosophical reflection and damn fine rock and roll chops. The Wave is coming (May 12th).
