For those who adore the loop pedal stylings of Andrew Bird and Owen Pallett/Final Fantasy, consider Edward Deer as your next assignment. He’s in the “rising star” phase of his career in Sydney, Australia – the phase where a fan’s “Like” still matters and an email address can buy more than just one free song. We love that phase.

Deer’s new record About Monsters comes out on September 7. The single

“Washed Ashore” arrives today in all its lush, melancholic, lapping tide glory. It’s free and you’re welcome.

“Washed Ashore” – Edward Deer

More Edward Deer can be found here, including a cover of Miike Snow’s “Animal.” To see him in action (and to see what this loop pedal business looks like), check out Deer’s performance of Talking Heads’ “This Must Be The Place.”
