Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr. It sounds like a long-forgotten finger-picking Delta bluesman, no?
Well…no, actually. Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr is, in fact, a Detroit duo, making sparkling, scatty electronic pop that sounds rather like a more bombastic Yeasayer, or a more focused Passion Pit.
‘Morning Thought’ is taken from their debut album It’s A Corporate World, set for a UK release some time next year. It is instantly familiar, with its catchily mournful vocal and crunchy guitars. Give it a couple of months and this will be that track – you know, the one that’s on every mobile phone advert ever, but which everyone loves anyway because despite being horribly overplayed, it’s still really, really good.
