Brite Futures “Baby Rain”

New and exciting news about Seattle’s Brite Futures, the artists formerly known as Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head! They have a new album out November 1st and just released a sneak peak track, “Baby Rain,” for our listening pleasure. The new album is a youthful swaggering mix of synth-happy pop, rock, funk, disco, and New Wave that the band likes to describe as “punk rock Abba disco Osmonds with chainsaws.” I’m in love!
