The indie alt-rock crew
known as Nulberry have released their official debut single, “Vegan
Chicken.” The track has been proudly published on the Chewy Records
independent record label without the involvement of the corporate
music industry. Blending the original indie sound of the late
nineties with a unique style of song composition all their own,
Nulberry place “Vegan Chicken” on the top shelf beside some of
alternative music's best-loved singles.
Daytona, FL's Nulberry
cite as main artistic influences Pavement, Modest Mouse, Delta Sleep,
The Unicorns, and The Microphines. If this seems like a grab bag of
fringe art rock, note that Modest Mouse have been gracing FM radio
for almost 20 years, while Pavement heavily influenced Phish, The
Black Keys, The Royal City Band, and countless others.
Nulberry's own sound has
been described as indie-math-pop rock, which fits. Unpredictable
percussion and chord progressions underlie poetic, un-repetitious
lyrics delivered with a minimum of pretension. The result is music
for the connoisseur, the vinyl collector, and live-music enthusiast.
Somehow, too, Nulberry's “Vegan Chicken” manages to have plenty
of hooks for the casual music fan on the go.
Asked to comment on the
themes of “Vegan Chicken,” Nulberry write, “In this world in
which information is universal and art can be shared to anyone who
owns a computer with the click of a mouse, it is inordinately
difficult to feel unique or special. 'All I have to say has all been
said before.'”
This last phrase, quoted
from the single, itself, comes with more than a dose of irony. Hardly
anyone is doing what Nulberry are doing today. Neither is this
accidental. In fact, it forms a large part of “vegan Chicken,”
too.
“It is a daunting
goal to want to provide the world with something unique and worthy of
being remembered for,” Nulberry say of this. “There will be no
legacy.” And again referencing their song: “'My corpse is all I
plan to leave behind.'”
Nulberry are founding
members Cory Lott (guitar, vocals) and Cameron Miller (percussion)
with Joe Boxell (synth) and Cory Tanner (bass). Nulberry are
currently at Dungeon Recording Studio working on new material for
their first EP with producer Fredric Freeman.
“Vegan Chicken”
by Nulberry is available from over 600 quality digital music stores
