Sounds of Savannah Stopover 2016 #29: SALES

A funny thing has been happening on the way to SXSW, y'all. A whole lot of bands have been making a pitstop in Savannah, Georgia, on their way to the musical motherland of Austin. And the city best known for its history is making waves with this here shindig known as the Savannah Stopover, about to enjoy its sixth iteration. My head has been turned enough to give y'all some recommendations from said Stopover for your listening pleasure. And if you happen to be free from March 10-12, maybe you ought to just venture on down to Savannah for yourself.

Lauren + Jordan = SALES. This Orlando twosome makes some delightful, slightly off-kilter twee folk jangle pop with bite. Lauren's vocals have a breathless, kittenish appeal to them, and the overall effect these two have is really and truly charming (even if the songs have lyrical content that isn't the stuff of fairytales).
