Eucalyptus - Stop & Go

When I caught Eucalyptus a couple weeks ago I mentioned an increased focus on rhythmic interplay – a fact that's hard not to pick up on when a group has upgraded to having three percussion players. This refocusing is best on display in this piece, which is simultaneously the group's first earworm singalong jam and the front side of their new cassingle/EP. Closing out a month of Saturday night celebrations at the warm and cozy Hirut restaurant, the band's frequent east-end haunt, there was a packed house on hand, with families out for dinner sharing the space with enthusiasts who'd made the trek out to see the band. There's a bunch of new songs in the band's book, so keep an eye out for further word on their third 10" record.
