My Neighbor/My Creator
Baltimore"s Wye Oak offer My Neighbor/My Creator, a vibrant EP that brims with melody and creative detours over five new recordings. Collaborating with outside producers for the first time, Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack"s new songs feel loose and direct, from the tumbling opener "My Neighbor" to the propulsive "Emmylou." "My Creator" and "I Hope You Die" begin like ballads but soon reveal unexpected layers of saxophone and percussion over Wasner"s cascading vocals. Tripwire calls My Neighbor / My Creator "the Baltimore duo"s most beautiful recording yet."
