Brooklyn indie band St. Lucia‘s new album Hyperion is out on September 21st. The group is also on tour and will perform in Vancouver on October 8th at The Vogue.
Jean-Philip Grobler says of the first single off the record, “Damn, ‘Walking Away’ has been in the works for a really long time. I wrote it with Nicky [Paul] and Ross [Clark] from the band before we even started recording our last album Matter, and we actually played it a handful of times on our last tour almost 3 years ago. The song came together super quickly and what you hear in this final version is about 60% the original demo– we just had to replace the Daft Punk loop we wrote on top of with something else, so that took about 4 years. And here it is, our funky beast.”
They have also shared a song called “Bigger.”

Go with yourself.
