After popping up to soundtrack Sunday night’s True Blood season premiere on HBO, Rihanna-collaborator Mikky Ekko’s new track finds him in a less questioning mood.
‘Kids’ premiered moments ago over on Gorilla vs Bear and finds the Louisiana-born singer-songwriter embracing a full-bodied melodic indie sound that recalls mid-80s stadium-filling pop as much as the soft-psych of more recent synth-guitar pairings.
