Yesterday (June 15) was Father's Day, and Vancouver pop-rock outfit Said the Whale celebrated by issuing an unreleased tune called "Father."
The track was recorded with indie super-producer Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, the Shins), and it showcases the studio whiz's usual pristine, shimmering sound. Beginning with low-key acoustic strums, the track builds up with galloping rhythms, twangy electric leads, and lyrics paying tribute to co-frontman Tyler Bancroft's pops.
Stream the song below. It's available to purchase on iTunes.
