CENTRAL SERVICES


Artist / Band: CENTRAL SERVICES
Song (MP3): 4 LETTER WORD
Album: Central Services
File Under: Pop / Powerpop / Indie
Info:
Seattle's Central Services is no stranger to the radio. In fact, with hardly any promo or outside push, the band managed to secure a 'Featured Artist' spot on NPR, not to mention being a KEXP favorite (7 out of 10 tracks on the latest release saw airplay). Central Services is a radio-ready act that maintains an indie hipness like Portastatic or Nada Surf. The pop-catchiness doesn't feel like a guilty pleasure, mostly because the music is so damn good. Melodies are a-plenty, and coupled with sweet vocals that recall younger days, crushes, and innocence. The band also shines on acoustic numbers with a 70's era melodic-focused simplicity. Central Services delivers genuine and genius tracks that remain with listeners indefinitely. Get onboard now-- this band is the next big thing.
