Album Of The Day: NAMO by NAMO

This is the only full-length album from the NAMO music collective, which is a bunch of teens and/or twenty-somethings making indie pop music out of Nashville. Asher Peterson produces the album and I believe came up with many of the atmospheric, electronic sounds. His siblings, Aedan and Skye Peterson, all the children of Christian singer/songwriter Andrew Peterson, contribute songwriting, vocals and more. But a lot of their friends—most if not all of them also independent artists—contribute vocals, songwriting, etc. And the kids are alright, as I like this album and how each song is unique, but also works together in the whole. Songs like "Talk!" and "The Gap" are very catchy and even if not every song is an earworm, they're very listen-able experiments in chill electronic pop. I hope these kids have kept and keep on making art, no matter what they do.
