I Love A World Atlas


Lost in a metropolis of noise, dance music and indie rock, proper indie pop still manages to find a way to shine in New York City. With influences from the likes of Donavon and The Smiths, Brian Broux found a way to fuse these influences into an orchestral parade of pop goodness in his new project World Atlas.

Joined by Fred Thomas (Saturday Looks Good To Me) and The Umbrella girls, World Atlas had recently released their debut EP on classic indie-pop label Magic Marker Records (The Manhattan Love Suicides, Fred Thomas, All Girl Summer Fun Band, The Bats, Voxtrot, B.O.A.T., etc). The EP is a pop atlas steeped in nostalgia and allegory that exudes an aesthetic of a library of weathered books, stolen glances and faded colors.

Classic indie pop then and the perfect soundtrack to spring.
