Tiny Victories’ new album, produced and mixed by industry veteran Alex Aldi (Passion Pit, Holy Ghost!) and mastered by Chris Gehringer (Yeasayer, Chairlift, Jay-Z), is a statement of purpose-and a point of arrival. The songwriting has evolved in a more focused direction, with a tighter structure, while Greg Walters and Cason Kelly continue to build on the experimental sonic architecture that fascinated them in their early days. Synth lines cut through through the dense underbrush of electronic soundscapes, propelled forward by Cason’s relentless drumming. Greg’s self-assured voice soars above the commotion.
Haunts comes on the heels of the band’s critically acclaimed 2012 EP, Those Of Us Still Alive. Following that brief 5-song debut, NPR picked Tiny Victories as a band likely to break big nationally, hand selected by WNYC’s own John Schaefer. MTV Buzzworthy lauded the band’s “futuristic synths, squiggly samples and fist-pumping vocals” as sounding “like a big win to us,” while Time Out NY highlighted their “Bittersweet bangers…which should satisfy those craving a hit of lush, hooky MGMT-style dance-pop.” The band was invited to play Bonnaroo in 2013 and join the Bonnaroo 365 tour with White Denim and Maps & Atlases, as well as share bills with Ra Ra Riot, Bear Hands, Yellow Ostrich, Magic Man and more.
