New Music: Mirrorball — The Hour

California’s MIrrorball – singer-songwriter Alexandra Johnstone and composer Scott Watson – describe The Hour as “a return to the familiar,” and trust me, you’ll want to get familiar with this band.

The Hour doesn’t sound quite like anyone else, but you’ll certainly get that same tingle you do on hearing Broadcast, Mazzy Star, or Tele Novella: a sense of coming across music that is freshly baked but timeless, full of 60s and 70s resonances, but shimmering with newness. It’s the perfect soundtrack for making memories with friends old and new, something to share and hold close.

The Hour is out now and streaming on all major streaming platforms, including SoundCloud and Spotify. For more listening options and to catch up with Mirrorball, head to Instagram or Facebook.
