ItÆs an experienceùone ': ,: so effecting that with only a self-released 12ö single in :, : circulation, 79.5 had been written up twice in The New Yorker on : :' the merit of their live sets alone. Their debut album ': ,: Predictions is produced by Leon Michels and was recorded at The :, : Diamond Mine in Queens the old school way, with the whole band : :' playing the songs in one take and captured to analog tape. ': ,: :, : They released their now classic Terrorize My Heart 45 in 2016 on : :' Big Crown Records and it solidified all the hype surrounding ': ,: them. The 7ö sold through the first pressing in just a few weeks :, : and became a staple in DJ sets around the world getting spins : :' from the likes of Gilles Peterson, Q Tip, Kenny Dope, DJ ': ,: Spinna, and Just Blaze to name a few. They announced their debut :, : album via BillboardÆs premiere of their newest single Boy DonÆt : :' Be Afraid which was accurately described as ôEnergetic and ': ,: infectious...a unique, yet easy to listen to experienceö. :, : Already getting heavy spins at radio and finding itÆs way into : :' the hearts of all the listeners, the instant classic Boy DonÆt ': ,: Be Afraid is as bandleader Kate Mattison describes, ôa sweet :, : little song about being. Being hopeful, being romantic, being : :' brave. A romantic stance and a declaration of love through ': ,: melody, in honest girl-group fashion. And like a classic New :, : York deli cup of coffee, light and sweetö. : :' ': ,: The album plays very much like their live show, a timeless :, : journey through a New York City dreamscape pulling in the : :' listener to the subtleties of three part vocal harmonies over ': ,: chords on the Rhodes to the peaks of four on the floor disco :, : drums. Equal parts psychedelic, and folk, gorgeous and gritty. : :' This mix of influences and vibes is maybe best embodied by the ': ,: stand out tune Facing East which sounds like ESG meets Fleetwood :, : Mac with Sade Saxophone for good measure. Fantasy and I Stay, : :' You Stay touch on love and vulnerability while the drum driven ': ,: SisterÆs Unarmed is 79.5Æs politically charged number about how :, : to stand up for equality yet hold on to your gentleness as a : :' person, and specifically as a woman in todayÆs world. Fireman ': ,: shows a more sassy side of the ladies, playing on words in a :, : tune many New York women can relate to; one about having a crush : :' on NYCÆs Bravest. Wavy is a straight forward good vibe tune ': ,: about getting out of the city and getting to the beach while the :, : albumÆs title track Predictions was written by Mattison after : :' having a dream about the apocalypse. The tracks encompass the ': ,: complexity of the band, sometimes literal and light hearted, :, : sometimes abstract and esoteric. 79.5 is easily one of New York : :' CityÆs most adored acts, their debut album has been eagerly ': ,: anticipated and will surely supersede fans expectations. :, : : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 2 0 \/
