"Am I the one that greeted you when we were young / Getting tetanus shots / I hope not, cuz that would be awkward..."
"South County" by Gainesville, Florida based Truth Value is a special little ditty. It has a great roughness, is self aware and angst ridden with 90's college rock radio tones. Primary songwriter and lead vocalist Cooper reminds me of a collision of Adam Duritz (Counting Crows) and Jeff Rosenstock. There is a fervent sense and thrashing about quality like going for broke busker punk or flailing around when you're drowning and yet, there are also moments of folk indie elegance bathed in melancholia.

I'm Cooper. I've been playing guitar since I was 9, and I write the songs here. Soon after I started to play them live, I realized that I needed a band to really make em POP. So I made friends! Matt Joseph on second guitar, Eddie Beck on drums, and Ryan Tribble on bass. I'd say it's indie rock? with a bit of punk and folk? What do you think? I think it's cool at least. Well anyway, thank you for listening. I love you. I really do *heart hands*
