A myriad hybrid of artists featuring Bon Iver's Justin Vernon, P.O.S, Mike Noyce members of Megafun, the Rosebuds and Solid Gold with Ryan Olsen leading the consortium. There are over 22 artists in this Gayng with their musical relaytions spanning across the genres...
Upon listening to the album 'Relayted' it's soft rock, 70's nostalgic sub-genre pop roots immediately come to the fore. Influences? Remember '10cc'? The classic heartbreak song... 'I'm Not In Love'? ... The pretenders covered it for the movie 'Indecent Proposal' ... still don't remember? As soon as you hear it you will recognise the record and probably begin humming along. Despite this comparison Gayngs succeed due to their lack of resemblance, where 10cc might sound cheesy, Gayngs are sexy yet sentimental.
Watch out for those almost pornographic Sax solos ...
Relayted currently out on the Jagjaguar record label.
