Album Spotlight: Springtime Carnivore, Springtime Carnivore

{{tncms-asset app=”editorial” id=”66e77efc-7a6c-11e4-80f2-4b3b70bac851″}}

Introducing Greta Morgan, who performs under the moniker Springtime Carnivore. Morgan’s debut album is a perfect blend of smoky vocals, old-school organs and subtle psychedelics that make for a very catchy and inviting listen. The great Richard Swift, who has served time in The Shins and The Black Keys, produced the album along with Morgan, and his retro ideals can be heard all over the record. Fans of Lana Del Rey, Fitz and the Tantrums, Dusty Springfield, Richard Swift, and classic Motown girl groups will enjoy these retro-soul sounds.

Start with: “Name On a Matchbook”, “Sun Went Black”, “Keep Confessing”
