Since L.A.-via-New York indie-rockers BRAEVES last released music in 2016, original members Ryan Colt Levy, Derek Tramont and Thomas Killian McPhillips VII have welcomed singer-guitarist Scott Goldbaum (ex-Forebear) into the band. Both live and in the studio, it’s taken a while to get everything dialed in.

“‘Pull Me In’ is the first song that we wrote and recorded with the newest addition, Scott,” Tramont says. “His vocals showcase a new and unique side of the band that we have fully embraced. Now that we have two singers, we can cover way more musical terrain.” The new song is a percolating indie-popper weaving the dual vocals with agitated rhythms and guitars.

“Undertaking ‘Pull Me In’ as a band in the recording studio consisted of name changes, lyric rewrites, added bridges, chord reharmonization and the guidance of our producer (Grayson Sanders) in helping us reel in five different perspectives into one uncompromised vision,” Goldbaum says. “The patience, trust, and unfiltered creative impulses from the four of us and our producer embodied what I’ve always aspired to have in a pure collaborative process.”
