Cherokee Red

Indie Shuffle's own Christiana Bartolini comes to us with another gem from her self-described "woozy dream pop" group, Cherokee Red. The five-piece, Wilkes Barre, Pa.-based band cites Mazzy Star, Beach House, and even Fleetwood Mac as influences, and "Mythomania" emulates the former's hazy comfort.On this track from the band's latest self-titled album, Bartolini's whimsical vocals float over light percussion and a lethargic guitar as she opens the song by singing, "Came and gone but the days were so long/ Only somber songs from the lonesome ride home." It's at this minute-mark that she's declared this, too -- a melancholic song for such a drive.As the song matures, the pace quickens, and Bartolini's delicate voice soars -- but don't be fooled. "Now I don't wish for anything again," she sings, followed by the repeated question: "When will we learn?"Roll down the windows, hit the road on a warm spring evening and prepare for life contemplation with this musing track.
