NEW VINYL LP ON DOMINO 2024
180 GRAM VINYL.
Real Estates sixth full-length album Daniel was recorded in an ebullient nine-day spree in RCA Studio A, in Nashville with celebrated producer and songwriter Daniel Tashian. In 11 compulsively tuneful songs, they connect the uninhibited wonder of their earliest work with the earned perspective of adulthood.
Martin Courtney actually learned of Tashian through his daughter, who adored an album hed produced, Kacey Musgraves Golden Hour. The band reached out and spotted an instant connection despite their distinct wheelhousesthe Grammy-winning Nashville country-pop guy whod helmed several smashes and the Northeast indie rock quintet with narcotic guitars. Real Estate had been thinking about R.E.M.s Automatic for the People and 90s soft-rock radio, the background music of their youth. Tashian helped lead them back toward it, toward an improved edition of the less self-conscious band theyd been at the start.Probably the biggest news item surrounding 2017’s In Mind, the fourth LP from sauntering daydreamers Real Estate, was the exit of founding member and lead guitarist Matt Mondanile, who left to focus on his solo project, Ducktails. Another Ridgewood, New Jersey native, Julian Lynch, stepped in, himself a veteran collaborator of member projects including Real Estate, Ducktails, and Alex Bleeker & the Freaks. It’s hard to imagine a smoother transition on the beachside sunset of an album that is In Mind. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Estate_%28band%29
