“It sounds like the music people heard in their parent’s car growing up… that early
-to-mid-’70s FM, radio-friendly music. There are a lot of live horns and synths too.”
– Sam Beam

A number of familiarnames pop up to contribute musically, adding layer upon layer, rhythm upon rhythm andacoustic guitars and whispering vocals for good measure. Kiss Each Other Clean is anotheruniquely layered and textured output beautifully combining folk, country, rock and worldmusic influences with 60s and 70s pop.
