Already huge stars in their native Australia, Sydney-based trio RÜFÜS DU SOL are heading Stateside this March to tout their LP Bloom, which we're streaming in full, above. You know, to whet your appetite. Dropping via ODESZA's label Foreign Family Collective on January 22, Bloom revels in laidback grooves of a Balearic, faintly house-y persuasion, with burnished soul vocals to give each song a beating heart. Basically the perfect soundtrack for summer (which it is Down Under) and all you need to thaw your bones this winter.
They already scored a number one album in Oz with their 2013 debut album and given that some cuts on this record—"Like an Animal" and "You Were Right"—have already racked up over a million plays each, Bloom looks set for similarly stratospheric success.
