Fading in on some ecstatic drums, “IRB” carries you off in a burst of indie rock fury. TIFFY is a reminder that an endless array of noteworthy music hails from New England. You’re immediately lost in the space between clever hooks and an awesome production. The track packs in slick lead guitars, a driving rhythm, and layered vocals. It’s much more than an easy listen, given its focus and execution. Tiffany Sammy heads up a song that reminds you of your favorite indie bands from the last two decades. Produced by Justin Pizzoferrato, the music comes with an esteemed pedigree. There’s also a self-assured attitude that’s reminiscent of more punk-driven acts.
With the added work of musicians like Sadie Dupuis, “IRB” holds your attention by setting up one surprise after another. Each skilled drum roll takes you through a tightly-wound presentation. From a fun intro to a ’90s fade-out, this single gives you another reason to embrace the current scene of alternative rock. If you enjoyed this single, you might also enjoy the artist’s version of “The Sign” with its punchy and subversive foundation. Look out for TIFFY’s next EP, “I Wanted To Know,” set to be released on July 10th.
