Review: Novi Split – Pink In The Sink (or) if at first you don’t succeed

Novi Split is David Jerkovich and company from San Pedro, California. They make music. More specifically, they (he) makes breezy indie pop that seems to make it self at home between the sounds of chirping birds outside and the dishwasher. It is completely unforced and unpretentious, and unassuming but ornamented.

David has played in groups like Kind Of Like Spitting, The Real Diego, and Ill Lit. On Novi Split’s full-length Pink In The Sink it shows. The songs are filled up with gentle drumming, acoustic guitars, occasional strings, and David’s plaintive but pleasant voice. It is simple and melancholy folk-influenced indie pop that probably won’t inspire you to dance or shout, but sometimes you just need to relax. RIYL: Death Cab For Cutie, Denison Witmer, etc…

Pink In The Sink is out now on Hush Records.
