Babies, The / Meet Me In The City

Make A Mess

“Meet Me in the City” is the second single from new NYC combo THE BABIES. “Meet Me in the City” and “Somebody Else” are rollicking pop gems, pungent with sweet harmonies, raucous beats, tambourines, skyscraping guitars: the works. Summer dreams, psychic revelry, concrete heat—Babies are born! The individual Babies are no strangers to melodic transcendence, a fact to which their work in psych-pop wunderkinds WOODS and chainsaw sirens VIVIAN GIRLS will attest. Anybody with an ear for indie-pop mayhem had best put their spending shoes on pronto, as these Babies are starchildren of an entirely different breed!  “Last month, we alerted you to the existence of The Babies, a new Brooklyn lo-fi sorta-supergroup featuring lead Vivian Girl Cassie Ramone, Woods bassist Kevin Morby, and Justin Sullivan, drummer for Brooklyn band Bossy. According to Ramone, Morby writes most of the new band’s songs: ‘It’s good for Kevin because he’s like the main guy, and it’s good for me because I can take a more backseat approach and just kind of help out.’”—Pitchfork
