Also, check out this great review of “The Sunlight and the Sound” from Asheville’s Mountain Xpress by Dane Smith…
Asheville’s retro indie-pop six-piece Nevada have merged the feel-good harmonies of ‘60s California folk rock with the ethereal, synth-driven noise rock of the ‘80s, and emerged with a debut worthy of comparisons to artists as diverse and influential as My Bloody Valentine and Fleetwood Mac. Spacey male/female vocal melodies soar alongside bright keys throughout The Sunlight and the Sound, complimenting the reverb-soaked guitar leads of day-dreamy anthems like “Flier’s Dream” and “In the Light” — an album highlight reminiscent of early R.E.M — while shifting to a delicate, near whisper for the album’s alt-country slow burners like “Fading.” And though Nevada’s sound is undeniably “classic,” they have just as much in common with Midwestern indie-rock artists Rilo Kiley and ‘80s Brit shoegazers Modern English as they do with Crosby Stills and Nash. Nevada carry these influences well throughout The Sunlight and the Sound, managing to meld seemingly contradictory elements of new wave, folk, classic rock and contemporary indie into a seamless offering that pays homage without coming off as derivative.
