WAND - Plum

Plum is Wand's fourth
LP since the band
formed in late 2013 but
their first new album
in two years. After a
whirlwind initial phase of
writing, recording, and
touring at a frenetic clip,
their newest document

marks a period of relative patience; a refocusing and a push toward a new democratization of

both process and musical surface.

In late winter of

2016, the band expand-
ed their core membership of Evan Burrows,

Cory Hanson, and Lee
Landey to include two
new members-Robbie
Cody on guitar and Sofia
Arreguin on keys and

vocals. From the outset, the new ensemble

moved naturally toward

a changed working method, as they learned how

to listen to each other
and longing hovering
above the proceedings.
Plum delicately locates
the band's tangent of
escape from the warm

and comfortable shallows of genre anachronism, an eyes-closed,

mouth-open leap toward
a more free-associative
and contemporary logic
of pastiche that more
honestly reflects the

ravenous musical omnivorousness of the five

people who wrote and
played it.
