Raynes - Radio Remind Me [LP]

Raynes has built a devoted international following through soaring three-part harmonies, poetic songwriting, and an unmistakable sound that doesn't fit into any one genre. With members bringing distinctly different musical backgrounds, Raynes has crafted a style that seamlessly blends folk, rock, chamber pop, Celtic influences, and world music into something wholly original. Rich vocal harmonies remain at the heart of their music, complemented by inventive instrumentation and thoughtful lyricism that have become the band's signature. Radio Remind Me is an exploration of time, memory, and nostalgia (or anemoia), and the title was chosen to reflect these themes. In addition to the sounds of ticking clocks, chimes, and church bells throughout, the songs include lyrical and sonic allusions to the work of artists such as Elvis, Dolly Parton, Paul Simon, and The Beach Boys, forming a thematic throughline of artists haunted by time.
