Item Details
The first recorded material released by Loch Lomond since the much-loved Paper the Walls, Night Bats captures the Portland band at its most creative and focused. Coming off national tours opening for The Decemberists and Blitzen Trapper, Night Bats features a directness and pop sensibility merely hinted at previously. The EP includes three joyous and shimmering pop gems; a fresh and dramatically different reading of an old fan favorite; and an ethereal cover of the classic Bee Gees ballad “Holiday.”

TRACK LISTING
• Ghost of an Earthworm
• Night Bats
• Spine
• Holiday
• Wax & Wire

PRESS QUOTES
“Portland’s Loch Lomond recalled Sufjan Stevens’ noisemakers, with each member providing a vital piece to a seamless collaboration. The well dressed seven-piece utilized maracas, violins, and even mouth clicks to build a pop orchestra beneath angelic harmonies.” — SPIN


“Singer Ritchie Young’s earnest demeanor belies his enormous voice, and the band’s varying instruments flesh out his songs perfectly.” — Ear Farm


“Loch Lomond deserves all the accolades they are getting.” — Brooklyn Vegan


“Perhaps ‘circus folk’ would be a more appropriate description. The songs certainly tumble and swoop, while Young’s voice acts as ringleader for the multitalented cast of performers he has gathered around him … Together they conjure up a joyful sense of youthful innocence and wide-eyed magic, one that suggests endless possibilities, unconstrained by such earthly concerns as dull conformity or cynical calculation.” — KQED
