Tandem Felix
Comma EP
[Trout Records]

There’s a thing that makes making convincing Americana in Dublin difficult, which is the surfeit of pedal steel players. Lucan lads Tandem Felix’s Comma EP is draped and drizzled in the stuff, which gives it an air of being potentially a lost cut from Summerteeth or Sea Change-era Beck. Throughout, the record sounds more earthbound than their early single Ryan Hoguet, with the lead-off Nothing I Do Will Ever Be Good Enough standing out easily as a deep-burrowing ear worm.
