Twin Cities quartet Good Luck Finding Iris has maintained an air of hazy mystery since the release of their first EP, Patience, last year. Whether its the black-and-white cover art, genre-hopping music, or even the headiness of their bio ("this is the sacred hollow, the common ground of four wanderers"), it's nearly impossible to guess what the band will do next. Fortunately, we now know what's coming up: releasing a new EP made with Caleb Hinz of Normal Parents.
"Greyhound" is the second single from the forthcoming Figures EP, after "Fool for You" came out a few weeks ago. At its core, it's a song about changing, about bringing one's own self to the forefront and leaving external influences behind. Mike Kota's transcendent lead vocals soar over the wavy instrumental. There's a seamless blend of 00's-era indie pop and eternal soul. It's simultaneously reverent and playful. A sense of progress emanates from "Greyhound." GLFI is caught in the flow of the river, but they willfully accept the current and get swept away into the future. The water is cool, and a change is coming on.
