Anybody who’s heard Haim over the past few years, or seen sisters Este, Danielle and Alana unleash classic-rock covers with their parents, has had to wonder: What songs are hiding underneath all that long flowing hair? What will these twentysomethings sound like when their writing grows into their estimable chops? These week we found out, as the band released a free three-song EP, “Forever.” It’s rhythmic indie R&B highlighted by Danielle’s bluesy vocals, sibling harmonies and mixed-bag percussion. Ready, set go.
