Hailing from Oakland, California, Small Crush’s latest single ‘5’, via Asian Man Records, is bursting with playful and vibrant indie rock energy.
Opening with a cheerful tempo and lulling vocals, ‘5’ is a track that fondly pines for simpler times and an innocence we will never fully have again. While the music video is a brisk minute and forty-nine seconds, Small Crush utterly enshrines the pure freedom of childhood. A time scattered with ice cream, play, and lemonade stands where hopeful and sunny dispositions were a little easier to come by. It may be turning back the clock with rose-tinted glasses, but the longing ‘5’ conjures is genuine.
I adore this song and consider ‘5’ to be a nostalgic dream track that lifts the spirits and would fit perfectly on break time or relaxation playlists. Small Crush will be on tour in the U.S. at the end of this year so make sure to check out their upcoming show dates!
