Local Live | Wmse

Milwaukee act Greatest Lakes will be releasing their new album, Divisions, on May 4th. If its opener, “Forest”, is any indication, listeners are in for an extremely pleasurable listen. A full-bodied beginning of soaring vocals and full-band lushness gives way to a peppy twang with a Band Of Horses comparison evident at this point. “In alternating between that expansive beginning and the twangy catchiness, the track remains fresh and vibrant. It’s a great piece of songwriting, and a showing of stellar audible chemistry, from an act that appears poised to explode in 2018 with the release of the excellent Divisions.” – Obscure Sound.
