washed out.

Lo-fi electro-love-maker Washed Out, aka Ernest Greene, has blown up and continues his tear through the Brooklyn and national indie scenes. Having been involved in many electronic outfits prior to Washed Out, including Lee Bedroom and Columbia, SC locals [just] Bedroom, Greene has amassed enough creativity to explode his newest project all over everybody. Washed Out features watery drum beats and distorted vocals.  Chords are created in the form of appegiators and synth waves that swallow the listener whole.  On top of it all are some of the catchiest melodies one can find in the current indie climate (which is far from devoid of catchy tunes). Check out some tracks below, and his remix of Small Black's "Despicable Dogs" on this post.

Washed Out - Belong
Washed Out - Feel It All Around
Washed Out - Luck

Washed Out is currently touring with Pictureplane and Small Black.  Mercury lounge was bombarded at two sold out shows Sunday and yesterday by the acid friendly trio. Other dates will be played in Austin at SXSW and the tour will finish with a one night stand at Music Hall of Williamsburg on April 10th.  Get Tickets NOW!

Love,
Jake
