One of the bands I’m most excited about this year has been Chicago group, Whitney. The band today have announced their debut album, Light Upon the Lake, due out June 3rd on Secretly Canadian.
To mark the news, Whitney have also shared their new visuals for “Golden Days.” The lush clip is imaginative, portraying guitarist Max Kakacek and singing drummer Julien Ehrlich on reels. We see them in a number of scenarios including a park in the fall and a small venue. The song itself beckons a different era, particularly with that beautiful horns part and those sweet melodies.
Check out the video above, and look below for their 2016 tour dates.
