Electronic pop side project for The King in Mirrors' Rich May and Jonathan Troy of The Hi-Life Companion.

Recordings from my retro youth. 
(From about 30 years ago.)

The Blowbacks play pop music, more or less. Sometimes it's pretty and sometimes it's not, but it's always beautiful... 

With influences ranging from Free Jazz to Frank Sinatra, via Neil Young, Pavement, Krautrock and classic 80s/90s noisepop, The Blowbacks whip up a sound that is equal parts fragile beauty and motorik power. Songs which boast indelible melodies are strapped to jet engines and sent into orbit. 

"The Blowbacks sound like an inspired musical collision between Steven Malkmus, Martin Carr and “Smile” era Brian Wilson. Everything sounds like a single - The Blowbacks marry pure pop genius to an almost Phil Spectoreseque wall of sound and the world is a better place for 3 minutes 25 seconds." - RICH CRAVEN - SONGS OF PRAISE PROMOTIONS
