Though they hail from Washington d.c., dreamy pop quartet Brett would sound right at home anywhere on the country’s opposite coast. the band’s latest single, “Claire Drained,” is a sun-bleached, mid-tempo collision of analog and digital spheres bound together by a resolute lead vocal that periodically clouds the song’s forecast. its near-universal themes of self-perceived shortcomings and inconsequential over-exertions are laced through a passionate, aural love letter to claire herself, an intimate confessional that’s ultimately refracted through a lens of prevailing optimism. “claire drained” is culled from Brett’s forthcoming album Mode, out march 18th via Cascine Records.
