647) Tara Terra - Like the Clothes

Illinois singer-songwriter Emily Blue has been featured on our blog twice before, with her own tracks "Microscope" and "Falling in Love", from her most recent studio LP, *69. Before embarking on her solo career, the Norwegian American had already released an album with her Champaign-Urbana band Tara Terra. Their folky indie rock sound resonated with Illinoisans and they've gone on to release a second album titled "Where's Your Light?" in May 2017, just weeks after Emily Blue's first solo hit "Blackberries" came out. A personal favorite of ours from Tara Terra's 2017 LP is "Like the Clothes", in which the band's unique sound and Blue's vocal ability shine. Clever, romantic writing tells the bittersweet story of an imperfect relationship that is so familiar you just can't let it go. A diverse set of emotions and melodies makes this track an unforgettable treat. The band was said to have broken up shortly after the album's release but released an EP in 2019 titled "Couch Surfer, Lover" where they tested the limits of their genre definition. In other news, tomorrow (28 June) is Emily Blue's birthday! Happy birthday, queen. Keep fighting to change the world through your music and activism! UT loves you <3
