“It’s all so perfectly crafted that it
feels less like new wave homage and more like an actual album of the era.” — Soundblab
“I wrote the chorus for this first, months before I came
back to it to finish it off,” says James
Henderson of Dallas-based band MOTORCADE
about “Deliver,” the latest single
from the foursome’s debut album. MOTORCADE was released via Idol Records this past Friday, with the
band playing a sold-out record release show the following evening.
Hear “Deliver”
now via music discovery website MXDWN here.
The track is the follow-up to the local hit “Recover,” which has been in steady
rotation via Dallas’ nationally recognized community radio station KXT for nearly a year. KXT is now also spinning the second MOTORCADE single “Desertion.”
The members of MOTORCADE
bring years of experience to the band. Andrew
Huffstetler (Voice), Henderson
(Guitar, Keyboards, Voice), John Dufilho
(Bass, Voice), and Jeff Ryan (Drums)
-- have previously recorded and/or been in touring bands with St. Vincent, The War on Drugs, Daniel
Johnston, The Apples in Stereo, Pleasant Grove, and many more.
The fruit of these dues paid is a fine and fluid debut
album that hits on every pressure point of late 80s-early 90s songcraft ala Depeche Mode, New Order, Echo & The
Bunnymen, The Jesus and Mary Chain,
and so on.
“When we first started actively playing together, we
had a couple of my ideas and just played them to see if we could do it,” says Henderson, which ultimately led MOTORCADE to become an actual thing.
“It worked out alright, but then I realized we’d need more songs,” he
continues. “So that was the impetus to start writing.”
The rest of the album is no afterthought. Everything here
is sent over the moon by serious production chops and musicianship, owing again
to the substantial pedigree that these guys came to the studio with. It’s an
aspect of record-making that is seemingly ignored by younger bands making music
influenced by this era.
“For me, production and songwriting go hand-in-hand,” Henderson says. The sounds are every
bit as important as the notes and chords being played.”
The self-titled debut album by Dallas-based MOTORCADE is out on Idol Records. Members of MOTORCADE are available for interviews.
