Listen to a new song by Fort Frances, “Take The Wheel”
Chicago indie rockers Fort Frances release their new album, Alio, on April 22nd. Fronted by singer-songwriter David McMillin, the band plays Philly at World Cafe Live on April 27th.
Fort Frances recently debuted a new song, “Take The Wheel,” on PopMatters.. About the song, McMillin told them:
“With ‘Take the Wheel’, though, I wanted to stretch into some different territory. I had been listening to a lot of Spoon and TV on the Radio, and I spent a week messing around with drum samples to start with something other than a melody or lyrics. I wanted to channel a more rhythm-first approach. And it really helped open up the creative space to to find this bed of guitar-monies that didn’t feel like anything we’ve ever done.”
