"I worry about my apartment in New York"
Brooklyn based Daniel Alvarez and Jordan Dunn-Pilz, collectively known as Toledo are finding their way. They have already gifted us all something special this year, their EP "Jockeys of Love", a collection of dreamy songs that feel like a pure expression of 70's garden rock, folk filtered indie rock with dream pop affections, with dark tones all brimming with the duo's incredibly moving iridescent vocals. Every single song is a stunner, varied in texture but at their core, sad and tender with a stuffed heart and hollow stomach. Today, the song in question is "Needer" and the boys share:
"Needer was the first song written and recorded for the EP. In March, we left our apartment in NYC to shelter in our hometown. The song speaks plainly to the concerns that rushed through our heads as mid-twenty year olds displaced by a pandemic. Ultimately, things like property or partying prove trivial in comparison to what we really needed at the time - connection.
