Washington DC indie-infused garage-rock trio Starting Early composed their newest single, “Bethesda,” after being inspired by long driving commutes in the greater DC area over several months.
Drawing deft comparisons between a long drive home and memories of unrequited love naturally flows into contemplating if it could be rekindled. When the wipers clear our vision of the drops that have obscured our ability to see, can we clear the clouds away from our thoughts as we continue forward on the road of life?
Painstakingly recorded at Ivakota Studios, the concerted effort to capture “Bethesda” is evident in the intensely layered vocals and instrumentation.
When describing the musical inspiration embodied in the new release, the members of Starting Early share that the track “explores a different soundscape inspired by the 80s while still maintaining the sound of Starting Early.”
About Starting Early
Starting Early is brothers Rory and Declan O’Donnell (vocals, guitars, and bass) with Paul Mosimann (drums, vocals).
Filed under the nebulous genre of indie-rock, Starting Early has a sound that is unpretentious and fresh. Cutting their teeth by studying Beatles harmonies and instrumentally recreating the sounds of acid rock legends Cream and Led Zeppelin, Starting Early injects a vintage vibe into their exciting and plucky songwriting.
