Lunarette
info:
The Brooklyn-based four piece Lunarette are stylistically hard to pin down. Members Kevin Doxsey, Brian Alvarez, Colin O’Neill, and Jackie Mendoza are drawn to working together specifically because of their divergent tastes, a crucial part of their formula for producing iridescent songs that defy quick categorization. On their debut EP, Clair de Lunarette, some songs evoked Cocteau Twins-esque dream pop built on a foundation of articulate production, where others dabbled in melancholic indie rock with a pop-focused sensuality. Lunarette’s ambitious sound is glued together by Mendoza’s enrapturing vocals, the sole constant for a group in which principal songwriters change from song to song.
