Tom Gallo is the host of Look at My Records on Radio Free Brooklyn
Radio Free Brooklyn and Bushwick Daily are proud to announce a new weekly local-music column that will focus on artists that call Bushwick home. Each week, a Radio Free Brooklyn personality will pen a record or performance review of a different Bushwick based artist, with a curated selection of the best upcoming local gigs in the neighborhood for the following weekend.
Brooklyn quartet Sooner kicked off the final month of 2018 by releasing their second EP, Stranger. Recorded in a home studio, the six songs on Stranger belie this recording experience in some ways. Sooner manage to bottle up a highly enveloping dream pop sound that’s vast and textured, but not overbearing, and intimate without being too taciturn. If you enjoyed the group’s 2017 debut self-titled EP, then Stranger will not disappoint, as it further builds off this delicate balance, giving Sooner their own alluring brand of soft shoegaze.
