THE RAFT - JOAB
The Raft is the brainchild of UK-based Phil Wilson, who creates glistening alt-rock melodies with an electro/shoegaze twist.

Tomorrow we will see the full release of his new album, Abloom, on Shore Dive Records. For today, we'll enjoy the single, "Joab." The song begins with a twangy pop-rock guitar riff that instantly generates a nostalgic 90s atmosphere and sets an upbeat pace. A steady rock beat, playful bass line, and Phil's vocals arrive to propel the track forward. Additional acoustic and electronic elements come in and out of the track, pushing and pulling to accentuate lush sonic layers. "Joab" is a song to listen to on a rainy summer day, when rays of sunlight sparkle through parting clouds. The Raft will leave you with a feeling of nostalgia and the urge to take a road trip.
