The Medium: “Sellout City”
Easy poppin’ from Nashville. Our highlighted track “Sellout City” by The Medium tells the classic story about a band that blows up, becomes intolerable, and loses its soul in the midst of material success. It’s a cliche at this point – quaint even – you can hardly recite the tale without a wink of the eye. But the clean, full, sparkling tones of the song don’t betray any disingenuousness. Throwback vintage production out of this band that traffics in shades of Big Star, Jonathan Edwards, Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Neil Young, for good measure). Off the full-length City Life.
