Magic Boy

Description

"Magic Boy," Bartees Strange's exclusive vinyl edition, reveals the artist's roots before his meteoric rise in the post-pandemic era. This 33-and-a-half-minute collection features unreleased recordings, 8 out of 10 of which had never been previously published, offering a glimpse into Bartees' malleable sound world before he became known to the general public. Between delicate folk, emo troubadour, and bold experimentation, "Magic Boy" evokes a "lost" album that helped shape the singular voice of this major indie artist. Bartees Strange, an emblematic figure in the diversification of the "indie rock" landscape, celebrates his exceptional journey here, from clubs to major arenas as an opening act for The National on their European tour in autumn 2023. A captivating vinyl that captures the essence of the artist in full metamorphosis.
