“Kai Slater’s lo-fi, Beatlesque references aren’t imitative or some cheap nostalgia-bait, but a sincere appreciation for an era of music that’s come and gone. The best way to enjoy all 21 new Sharp Pins songs is by savoring them.”
“21-year-old power-pop auteur Kai Slater is back with a deliberately constructed album that finds the sweet spot between winsome and whimsical, chaos and craft.”
