Mamalarky thrive in the in-between, a tri-coastal outft straddling Atlanta,
Austin, and Los Angeles, crafting a sound that feels both meticulously
constructed and effortlessly unspooled
Their brand of indie rock is delightfully askew-- swirling psych fourishes meet wiry
guitar tangents, all anchored by tender, off-kilter hooks that burrow deep. It's music
that invites you into its strange little universe, full of inside jokes and late night
musings turned into melodic gold.
Their sophomore effort, Hex Key -- marking their Epitaph Records debut-- lands in
April, with plenty of mileage ahead as they road test new material. A spring tour
includes a run with Hinds and a stop at Treefort Music Fest, where their shape-shifting
sonics will no doubt translate into hypnotic, full-bodied chaos.
Formed in Austin in 2016, Mamalarky's lineup has since scattered across time zones,
but their chemistry remains unmistakable. Guitarist Livvy Bennett (formerly of Cherry
Glazerr), keyboardist Michael Hunter (White Denim), drummer Dylan Hill, and bassist
Noor Khan (Faye Webster's touring bassist) operate like a band that's spent years
fnishing each other's musical sentences. Their songwriting thrives on kinetic
interplay-- nimble and restless, yet always landing in some deeply satisfying pocket.
While indie- pop might be the easiest tag to slap on them, Mamalarky dodge the
genre's more predictable trappings. Instead of settling into breezy melancholy, they
embrace complexity-- knotty time signatures, rubbery basslines, and melodies that
feel like they're winking at you. It's heady but never pretentious, the kind of music that
rewards repeat listens, each spin revealing a new hidden corner.
