Ears Wide Open: Nacosta

2

“Take,” the first single from L.A. quartet Nacosta, announces itself with a swirling, serpentine guitar riff that recalls the hazy, crazy days of the Stone Roses or the Cult. Their debut EP “Wilderness City” is not all delay and distortion, though – Nacosta also dwells in the more contemplative, acoustic shadows of psych-rock, where fear and mystery remain at arm’s length, seemingly warded off by four-man harmonies. The foursome – Cal State Northridge-educated brothers Brandon and Shane Graham, Kevin Baudoin and Brent Rowley – are working on a full-length album, and judging from “Wilderness City” their music could go, wildly, anywhere.
