GP veteran Alex Maddox- usually known for his luscious pop acoustic songs- has returned to San Francisco and started a band called Sure, Man which leans a lot closer to pop-punk and garage rock than his previous “meet you by the pier” precedent. In this track, I feel like Alex (consciously or not) is blending his new and old styles- the new post-Demarco indie guitar tones and slightly slacker sentiment, mixed with a basic “just chords and lyrics” songwriting approach which has always been the backbone of his craft. The two styles fuse effortlessly, leaving us with another classic Group Picture track.
