ANDY SHAUF – Norm – LP – Eco-Mix Vinyl

LP -Indies Exclusive Limited EditionEco-Mix Vinyl.

On his new studio album Norm, Andy Shaufs songwriting veers decidedly more oblique, hinting at sinister happenings and dark motivations. The result: an intoxicating collection of mellifluous melodies and beguiling lyrics. Levitating, synth-laden atmospherics drive Shaufs storytelling on Norm, mixed by Neal Pogue (Tyler, the Creator). In 2016, The Party catapulted Andy Shauf to indie notoriety, followed by 2020s The Neon Skyline which landed Andy Shauf performances on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

It will be Shaufs eighth LP overall and first since 2021s Wilds. According to Shauf, the album is centred around the titular character of Norm, who was inspired by David Lynchs film. The character of Norm is introduced in a really nice way, Shauf says of the first round of preview singles. But the closer you pay attention to the record, the more youre going to realise that its sinister. Shaufs status as one of indies greatest songwriters was solidified with 2020s The Neon Skyline.
