Morgan Delt: “Obstacle Eyes”
Morgan Delt is a young Californian who is clearly influenced by folky 60’s psychedelia (Zombies, Byrds, etc) though he also takes some cues from dream pop recording techniques to create complexly layered songs that evoke a sort of druggy haze. His single “Obstacle Eyes” is, like a total trip, maaaan to use the parlance of the times. Pretty guitar chords lazily float around Delt’s delicately understated vocal delivery, and everything is bathed in a wash of reverb to the point where you start to feel like the echoing is going on inside your head. Delt’s debut full length self-titled record comes out tomorrow via Trouble in Mind.
