Sorry Ever After, Meet Us When the Lights Go Low

Surf-rock riffs and flat, girly harmonies are no longer a novelty in indie rock, but when rendered well, they still sound refreshing. Sorry Ever After is a strong girl-rock band with one token dude (drummer Mike Cloward) and a sharply defined vintage aesthetic: Lead singer Lynda Mandolyn rocks a Bettie Page haircut. The band’s tunes are sing-songy and simple, and sometimes rely on female empowerment mantras — including the one from Pollyanna — which Mandolyn delivers with disarming sincerity. (NoSunNoShadow)
