Philadelphia indie folk outfit Tamarin ready debut album
Philadelphia’s Tamarin makes unique and introspective indie folk pop with heart-sleeve lyrics, bittersweet vocal harmonies, a raw terrain of meter shifts, and an in-the-pocket rhythm section. Their debut full length, Shake The Ghost (out 10/9, La Société Expéditionnaire), is haunted by displacement, loss, and yearning as much as it is a cathartic shedding of such hopeless apparitions. Tamarin’s approach to songwriting is empathetic, genuine, collaborative, and delivered with conviction.
“Seems A Laugh,” the first single from Shake The Ghost, is also included on a free, 12-song label compilation, curated by La Société Expéditionnaire. Download & stream the entire sampler, which also features Daniel Knox, Jonathan Byerley, Lewis & Clarke and Arc in Round, HERE.
