Date Palms’ Thrill Jockey debut, The Dusted Sessions, is more than a genre-defying slice of desert psychedelia. Led by the core duo of Gregg Kowalsky and Marielle Jakobsons, the group excels at creating highly melodic and emotionally affecting compositions that draw their power from the balance of their cosmic ambitions and reverence for earth-bound beauty. Earlier today Brooklyn Vegan premiered “Sky Trails,” a previously unreleased track from the same sessions that produced the album. The track finds the band revisiting melodic ideas that recurred throughout the record, unwinding and expanding the familiar themes atop a dramatic drone baseline. The track will appear on a special tour CD-R that features unreleased material and demos that the band will be selling at upcoming shows.
