This country dog won't die in the city

Men I Trust are a Canadian dream-pop band with infectious basslines, oblique lyrics, and a sound drenched in swimmy reverb and sunny nostalgia.

Men I Trust started popping-up on my Pandora channels during quarantine, and I was really taken by their sound, and happy to have them join the mix.

Really enjoying this sound, and they're touring the US and Canada this fall if you want to go see them live.

I saw them 1-2 years ago when they opened for Belle and Sebastian. They sounded good enough that I made a point to check them out when I got home but I was also quite annoyed by the sameness of their set, like would it kill them to go a bit outside of their comfort zone?
