Alt-folk collective The Rishis dip their toes in dark college rock in their new single Holiday, a track from their new album August Moon. Circling around the twin axis of Ranjan Avasthi and Sofie Lute are alumni of the Athens music scene - Scott Spillane (Neutral Milk Hotel), John Kiran Fernades (Olivia Tremor Control), Andrew Rieger (Elf Power), James Huggins III (Of Montreal), Andy Gonzalez(Marshmallow Coast), Peter Alvanos (Elf Power), Lucy Calhoun (Black Swan Network), Todd Kelly (Great Lakes, Phosphorescent), and Wild Rumpus founder Timi Conle. And while each musician is giving plenty of opportunity to make a mark, the music itself is a collaborative effort, once again proving that the sum is greater than its parts.
August Moon will be released (vinyl, CD, digital) on on April 21 via Cloud Recordings and Elephant 6).
