Austin alt-pop duo Flora & Fawna, the dynamic duo of singer-songwriter Lili Hickman Waldon and producer, multi-instrumentalist Mason Ables, have left an amazing debut impression on me with their single Slow Burn. The song itself is a dreamy, dancy tune that could easily be mistaken for the likes of Little Dragon with its dancey vibe, harmonized lyrical performance and earworm-ish nature. The experience is amplified by the video, a brief masterpiece directed by Kirk Van Sickle and crew that feels like a mix of Mandy and The Neon Demon streamlined to under four minutes. This is how a debut should be made, and I will certainly be one of those front and center for the follow-up single and eventual album. Until then, check out the video, leave a like and a comment if you’re feeling it, and share it around for everyone to enjoy!
