about
The music of Private Eleanor, who hail from the underdog city of Baltimore, has been called everything from “whisper-folk-pop” to “infectious indie-rock” to “moody, progressive pop.” At various points, they manage to conjure Mojave 3 produced by Wilco, or Simon & Garfunkel fronting the Dismemberment Plan, or Yo La Tengo tackling your favorite Neil Young and Big Star songs. Sweethearting, the band’s fourth full-length record, is the most confident and direct effort yet in a critically-acclaimed body of work stretching back to their lo-fi cassette days at the beginning of the decade. With the help of two of the nearby DC scene’s most in-demand engineers – T.J. Lipple and Chad Clark – the band has captured a remarkable set of songs, full of sly hooks and sparkling textures, gorgeous boy/girl harmonies and oblique-but-evocative storytelling.
