Lucie,Too captures the essence of a perpetual summer afternoon. Their sound is built on a foundation of bright, jangling electric guitars and a rhythm section that pushes forward with infectious, youthful urgency. It is music that feels light but never shallow, balancing the sugary sweetness of 90s twee-pop with the grit of DIY garage rock.
What truly sets them apart is the vocal delivery of Chisato Kokubo, which possesses a soft, almost whispered quality that contrasts beautifully against the driving tempo of the drums. There is a distinct sense of 'neo-nostalgia' here; the music feels like a memory of a time you haven't actually lived through, filtered through the lens of modern Japanese indie sensibilities.
Start with their breakout single 'Lucky' or the album 'CHIME' to hear their signature blend of catchy hooks and earnest songwriting. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who loves the intersection of power-pop melodies and indie-rock authenticity.
