Embedded within LaCore’s alt-rock output are influences that traverse the last three decades. It’s difficult to pinpoint specific sources, although most prominent are the sounds that emerged from New York in the early aughts, an imprint that Jeff Thompson, producer, songwriter and vocalist for LaCore, wears on his sleeve in bold colors.

Touring the world as a front of house engineer before the pandemic, Thompson is now submitting his years of collaborative efforts that trail the American West Coast, transitioning to front man and garnering his friends along the way.

In return, we get one sonic bust after another, deconstructed, reconfigured and dressed up for the occasion on a hard-hitting debut EP. "I'm confined from 9 to 5, I think of fireflies." Thompson ponders across a guitar heavy soundscape in a declaration against the responsibilities of adultness. “In your superstition, you drown inside the well that granted you your only wish. Come on get out of my head!” repeated over clangs and shreds, unveiling the egotistical battles that can drive two people apart.

Rounding out the lineup in this California based four-piece are Mihailo Lukic (guitar), Dan Kashuck (drums), and Michael Carlito (guitar). The bands debut EP, Popularity Wins, is available on the major streaming platforms May 13, 2021.
