Emily & the Complexes: Styrofoam Plate Blues

Columbus, Ohio's Emily & the Complexes are an enigmatic band. No one named Emily, no female members at all for that matter and a sound that is born of  frontman Tyler Verhagen spending several years hitch-hiking around the U.S.playing songs on street corners. Their new album, Styrofoam Plate Blues, shows the seasoning one only acquires through experience. The band is super tight, the songs are accessible, yet with with deep messages. This is an indie rock album that belongs in everyone's collection. Stream and buy Styrofoam Plate Blues at the link below.
