With an excellent video from Ralph Matthews ( http://ralphmatthews.com) Sherpa gives us "I'm Happy Just To Lie" off their 2012 album "Lesser Flamingo". The band have been around for a few years now, and from what I understand have released, in addition to the latest album, an EP through Muzai records called "Pretty Sparklers" and the 2011 EP, "Pretty Cool Optical Illusions". Describing their music as psychedelic power pop, it is melodic, adventurous and entirely pleasant to listen to (not in a bland way!)...with extensive use of vocal harmonies and the occasional use of unconventional song structures. There is some very good songwriting here. You can buy "Lesser Flamingo" and their earlier material at the links below. I really enjoyed this video.
