Fanclub‘s new EP All the Same is out now via Berlin-based label Friendly Reminder.
Following on the release of their singles “Stranger” and “Reflection“, Fanclub have finally unveiled their official debut EP. On the 5-track project, the Austin’s trio comprising Mike Lee, Leslie Crunkilton and Daniel Schmidt oscillates between twee pop, synth-pop and dream pop with a sparkling touch of melancholy. About the EP, Mike Lee detailed:
Leslie and I started working on a song and before we knew it, we had a ton of material in a short matter of time. Leslie’s band had just broken up and mine was on an indefinite hiatus. Fresh off a heartache and a death in the family, Fanclub was the perfect place for both of us to find creatives ways to move forward. This EP represents a new beginning where we could do old things in a new way. With Daniel supporting us in every sense of the word, we were very careful to sculpt a sound we loved and we hope others will love it too.
