The lead single off Sam Hoffman’s debut album Fairweather, “Glencrest Lane” is a consuming example of Hoffman’s strong songwriting and aesthetic, recalling ’60s and ’70s rock/pop while emphasizing a jangly feel. This particular track shows a nod to Teenage Fanclub and Olivia Tremor Control, specifically, serving as “an introspective look back on Hoffman’s formative years growing up in Cincinnati.” Hoffman’s lush vocals weave themselves around a laid-back bass line, occasional psych-friendly piano, and twangy guitars. There’s a lovably nostalgic and familiar tint to this track, while also feeling original in its own right.
