As former compadres of the late cult icon Elliot Smith, and having made up parts of Weezer's touring band and played with Eels, Johnny Marr and Neil Finn among others, it's not surprising that frontman Sullivan has such an evident ear for gently rolling indie soundscapes.
Opener Ice Breaker Blues has a pleasingly lackadaisical underpinning, with sighing backing vocal and meandering pace, and Smith et al's influences are pretty evident throughout.
