Jeanines, Business Of Dreams, A Certain Smile
Recommended
The Brooklyn-based group Jeanines play indie pop the way it was meant to be heard: in short jangly bursts, wasting no time in giving you a melodic hook and heartfelt lyric to latch onto. The duo’s focus and attack are precise and direct, meaning the longest song on their self-titled debut just barely creeps past the two-and-a-half-minute mark. Theirs is the kind of music that sounds best when heard on a 7” single packaged in a roughly folded paper sleeve, but it will surely sound just as good when played live and in person.
