There’s something to be said for a band that isn’t afraid to chase a feeling instead of just a hook. With their latest single “Indigo,” our friends from the R Train do exactly that—diving headfirst into atmosphere, concept, and sonic exploration to create a track that feels as much experienced as it is heard.
