Chalk & Numbers - They Knew Retro Pop Sounds Sweet

Chalk & Numbers is the Brooklyn, NY duo Andrew Pierce & Sable Yong.  They have an EP of 60's style retro pop with a tiny post-modern twist thrown in.  The songs have instantly catchy hooks and perfectly spot on vocals.  The singing is very smooth and a pleasure to listen to on each track.

My two favorites on the 1st listen were “He Knew” and “I Hope You Do”.  They are upbeat and have the 60's pop vibe that seems timeless.  Sort of like classic surfer music fused with Deee-Lite.  "Let's Go Away" is one that has grown on me as time goes on.  Not as upbeat but with a more soulful sound without wandering from the pop roots this is another stand out track.

Chalk & Numbers seem to be playing the NY scene fairly regularly.  I imagine an evening spent listening to them would be time well spent.  Check them out below and feel free to grab the EP.  You can also visit them on Facebook.
