Listen to "Front Stoop #2" from Nicholas Krgovich's forthcoming album of solo 4-track recordings, ππΆπ€π¬π΄ 15 Feb 2023
Ducks, an intimate album of solo 4-track recordings by Vancouver, BC singer, songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Nicholas Krgovich (No Kids, P:ano, Mount Eerie, Dear Nora, Shabason & Krgovich), will be released by Orindal Records on March 10, 2023. Ducksβ breezy, melancholic tunes describe Krgovich's day-to-day in charmingly mundane detail over clever pop arrangements reminiscent of Yo La Tengo at their gentlest & The Beach Boysβ Smiley Smile. Ducks is Nicholas Krgovich's first album for Orindal since 2015's On Cahuenga. We're so pleased to be working with him again!
Ducks' lead-off track & first single, "Front Stoop #2", is now streaming everywhere.
Nicholas Krgovich on "Front Stoop #2":
Made up this song in a "end of the bed with an acoustic guitar preparing for a coffee shop open mic nite" spirit! Takes about as long to listen to as it did to come up with - my feelings in September 2019 after a summer of forest fires and a very trippy biblical end times western hemlock looper moth infestation... Enjoy :-)
