***Seattle’s Model Shop returns with ‘Easy Winter’, the lead single from their upcoming Check the Forecast EP, and the follow-up to the pop trio’s acclaimed debut LP, Love Interest (2022), which was heralded as “a masterpiece full of sparkling melodies and rainbow-colored harmonies,” and “one of the finest indie pop albums of the year.” Love Interest garnered fans and spins across the globe, pages of rave reviews, and appeared in rotation and on the charts at legendary KEXP 90.3. Formed in 2019 by descendants of indie pop darlings Math and Physics Club, Model Shop spins shimmering melodies and acrobatic pop hooks that probe the ether of love and longing, evoking lost ages and still-luminous possibilities. Their music is “a joyous slice of indie pop that takes heavy artillery to any lingering grey clouds,” and evokes “that feeling of being suddenly knocked out of one's heart.”.

***Rising from Seattle's indie pop and rock scenes in 2019, Model Shop was the natural next step for longtime friends and bandmates Kevin Emerson and Ethan Jones, who played together in indie pop darlings Math and Physics Club. Over the years, they had crossed paths with bassist Jen Fox, and bonded over their love of melodic, effervescent pop music. After playing their first shows just before the pandemic, the band tracked their debut LP, Love Interest, mostly in their separate rooms, before coming together to finish vocals and mix with Martin Feveyear in the fall of 2021. Combining sparkling melodies, iridescent harmonies, and breezy, wistful guitars, Model Shop’s tightly crafted pop songs frame modern stories of love and longing through a nostalgic lens, evoking lush summer drives and luminous city nights.
