Tampa Bay might have its first perfect pop album of the year.
From the weepy strings and sexy synth on title track “To Make A Man,” to the melody and harmony on “Winds Softly Change,” and the bare bones balladry of “Always With Me,” Speak Easy‘s full-length debut is 37 minutes of pure yachty bliss.
The quartet—Eric Yoder, Brendon Porter, Jack Clements, and Karekin Sahagian—wraps the 11-track album up in its signature polish, and while it’ll be a treat to catch a buzz and see the heartthrobs in this brewery setting, we’re hoping for a full on album release show before Porter skips town.
There’s no cover to see Speak Easy play 3 Daughters Brewing in St. Petersburg on Saturday, July 20.
