San Francisco duo Girls were the name on every indie kid's lips in the 2010s, with the pairing of songwriter Christopher Owens and producer / musician Chet "JR" White forging some kind of magic that had the likes of Pitchfork spellbound. Their meteoric rise left a giant crater in indie rock when they came crashing down and broke up in 2012, but thankfully Girls left behind two incredible albums, and an essential EP. Now, all these years later, Virgin have announced the vinyl reissue of debut album Album (2009), its follow-up Father, Son, Holy Ghost (2011), and the brilliant Broken Dreams Club EP. - Flying Out
Named in Pitchfork’s “200 Most Important Artists of the Last 25 Years," the San Franciscan songwriting duo Girls imparted a massive sonic shift on their last 2010 EP Broken Dreams Club, before breaking up in 2012. The band emerged with a more massive, lusher sound with horns, pedal steel, and psychedelic effects throughout. Upon its release, Christopher Owens described the exuberant six songs as a “letter of intent,” “snapshot of the horizon,” and “step up” from its stunning predecessor Album.
