stream Jay Som's Polyvinyl debut, 'Everybody Works'

Jay Som Everybody Works

Jay Som (the band led by Melina Duterte) will release their first album for Polyvinyl, Everybody Works, next week (3/10), and they’re now streaming the whole thing in full. Jay Som experiment with various styles of indie rock (shoegaze, dream pop, emo, folk, lo-fi, mid-fi), and the whole record is cohesive even though basically no two songs sound alike. The cherry on top is the melancholic trumpets, recorded by Melina herself (she studied music theory and played jazz trumpet in high school). Listen to the album below, via NPR.

Jay Som will soon kick off a tour, which hits SXSW, where one of her shows is the BrooklynVegan/Sound on Sound day party at Cheer Up Charlie’s on Thursday, March 16. Full lineups for the BV/SOS shows coming very soon. More info and RSVP links here.

After SXSW, Jay Som begins a run with The Courtneys, which hits NYC on March 29 at Baby’s All Right. Tickets for that show are still on sale.
