God Made The Highway (Evergreen Vinyl) [ VINYL LP ]

Lawn - God Made The Highway (Evergreen Vinyl)

For the past decade, the New Orleans band Lawn has thrived on the palpable chemistry between co-lead singers and songwriters Mac Folger and Rui De Magalhaes. Though each boasts distinct sensibilities—Folger’s songs are breezy, jangly, and personal while De Magalhaes’ are biting and propulsive post-punk—they’ve seamlessly blended their idiosyncratic styles over three unassailable indie rock full-lengths. While their latest, God Made the Highway, is their most confident, energetic, and cohesive yet, it’s also the product of distance. De Magalhaes had moved to Chicago following the release of the 2022 Bigger Sprout, while Folger stayed in Louisiana. Despite being apart, the two still found their relentlessly collaborative spark through remote writing, ample voice memos, and a blistering studio session. These 11 urgent and inviting tracks are a testament to their enduring friendship. A1. Water A2. Lonely River Blues A3. Davie A4. Pressure A5. Barroom Wonder B1. History Lesson B2. Everyday Man B3.
