Sipper - ily<3
Say what you will about Sipper, but it’s hard to criticize the guy’s work ethic. This NYC artist has seemingly put out a song a week for the last century - and the only reason that’s a noteworthy feat is because they are all, well, quite good. Our personal favorite of the batch is his newest release, “ily<3,” which blends hazy lo-fi rock with some retro synth pads that you might find in a cheesy 80s pop song, such as this gem from When In Rome. Part of the Sipper appeal is that he clearly doesn’t take himself too seriously, but that hasn’t prevented his ever-expanding catalogue from gaining mainstream momentum. We’ll be looking forward to his next LP release later this year.
