Welcome to June my fellow folkies. As we creep ever closer toward the official start of summer (and hopefully sustained beautiful weather), we find more and more reasons to celebrate. And there’s no better way to let loose than with this infectious track from hometown (well, my hometown) heroes Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.
Built on hypnotic melodies and varied compositions that blend genres from folk to electronica, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. have become a symbol of the creativity brimming in Detroit, much of which has remained under the radar. “If You Didn’t See Me” is a definitive example of what makes DEJJ such a compelling listen. It builds slowly, traversing a multitude of sounds pulling from all corners of the musicverse, then the chorus comes and the song kaleidoscopes into an impossible to resist dance tune. If it doesn’t make you move, there might not be hope for you.
“If You Didn’t See Me” comes from the bands latest release, Patterns EP, a tight four song collection of diverse tracks. The EP is available now, head to the band’s website to purchase. And don’t forget to like them on Facebook and follow them on Twitter.
