- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Summer is no myth. It exists year round on Holiday Shores Ct, a two-block
stretch on the Florida panhandle where twenty-one year old Nathan Pemberton
grew up. ItÆs no more than five minutes from white sand beaches, squawks of
seagulls, and wafting smells of suntan lotion.
ColumbusÆd The Whim is the first first full-length album from PembertonÆs
Holiday Shores, who, like the street that bears their name, are
quintessentially summer: chimey guitars, reverb-soaked vocals, warbling
Rhodes, echoes of years past.
Pemberton started playing the piano at age seven and learned the guitar
shortly after. He began finding his musical footing in high school bands,
playing with his brother, friends, and eventually his college roommates.
The album, packed with 10 could-be singles, reads like a book of PembertonÆs
well-written memories. Each word chosen meaningfully with a linguistÆs touch;
each sentence constructed carefully with an artistÆs ear. ColumbusÆd The Whim
is a literary work in addition to a sonic one.
The current line up, comprised of friends and roommates spent months
recording together in PembertonÆs living room obsessing over vintage gear and
perfecting their captivating hooks, heart-warming melodies, and creating a
haunting tunnel of sound as a stunning backdrop.
