Episode 158: Goings

You can also listen to this episode on your streaming platform of choice via Wavve.

Episode 158 of Look At My Records features an interview with Philadelphia indie-rock quintet Goings.  This emo and math rock-influenced group got their start in drummer Chris Kearney’s grandmother’s dance studio while it was vacant in the winter of 2017, and they emerged with a batch of rhythmic, toe-tapping tunes that make up their debut, “It’s For You.” Released this past November on Know Hope Records, the album mixes vibrant synths with quirky beats and flowing rhythms for a sound that recalls bands like Motion City Soundtrack and The Dismemberment Plan. Tune in to hear all about the band’s early practices in the aforementioned dance studio, their highly collaborative songwriting process, how they’ve been spending their time lately, and a whole lot more. This episode features records from Donovan, The Zombies, Destroyer, The Dismemberment Plan, Crumb, and Cymbals Eat Guitar. Follow along with the band’s record pick through the official playlist for Episode 158!

You can purchase a copy of It’s For You on vinyl via Know Hope Records. The album is also available on Bandcamp and Spotify. Keep up with the band by following them on Instagram and liking them on Facebook.
