thebreakups

L.A. indie-rockers the Breakups – not to be confused with the Break-Ups or the Breakup – have been working on music to follow up 2008’s “Eat Your Heart Out” EP, which shone with songwriter Jake Gideon’s classic power-pop influences. Now Gideon is readying a new single, “Better Off Alone,” and for the B-side, he joined forces with Jacqueline Santillan Beighley of bilingual popgazers Wait. Think. Fast. to create “Sentimentalitis,” which channels the Beatles in the best possible way. The A-side sounds good too; look for it by the end of the year. (And, by the way, Wait. Think. Fast. is working on its new music in Tucson with producer Craig Schumacher.)
