More Overcoats More Overcoats

"It’s uncomplicated, untarnished pop music from a forgotten era."Joe Dolan

Grabbing guitars this time around, although The Fight sees Overcoats with a slightly rockier and grittier sound, its anchor is still the amazing harmonies that Hana Elion and JJ Mitchell produce. 

The album is a battle cry; a rallying call as the band forged a new identity. Released at the start of March, it’s almost like they released the perfect album to get us through this pandemic without even knowing it. 

Case in point - the soaring Fire & Fury thanks to its ascending refrain, “We’ll get through it.” If that doesn’t give you the motivation to get through whatever it may be, you’re ice cold.
