The second tune from Letherette's latest four-track EP, Surface accedes a tranquil moment, painted with sempiternal vocals and a soft stacatto that feels like a loon flapping its wings against calm waters or skipping a stone as far as the eye can see.

Oh hey internet. Just got back from a lovely 12 day trip to the South of Brazil. Happy to be back in the land of large coffees, basking in the remains of my vacation demeanor with this saxy delight. 

Everytime I get a Christmas song stuck in my head this season I'm going to put this track on and bliss out.  

How do you spell relief? D-U-B-B-E-L D-U-T-C-H.  Oh daddy.

This track is so tight and energetic.  Like the opposite of my holiday body right now.  Which is why I'll be listening to this on repeat while I shimmy off all this pie.
