Shy Girls – Gonna Get My Name Back

shygirls

“Gonna Get My Name Back” new from Portland-based act Shy Girls is a most excellent slice of that classic 80s R&B pie. The Hall & Oates refs are def there (there’s even a little Sade mixed in too) but Shy Girls’ sound is no dusty throwback pastiche, nah, this shit is live. Great grooves, a great backbeat, great melodies, picture yourself on a boat, fruity drink in your hand, life washed in sunlight. That’s “Gonna Get My Name Back”
