Claude says:The Mowgli's hit you all at once on June 28th, 2013—a sun-soaked indie pop record that felt effortless and urgent in equal measure, and you cycled through the whole thing in a single evening like you needed to hear every track to understand something. The L.A. collective's blend of acoustic warmth and breezy alternative production has that early-2010s California optimism locked in, and even though it was a quick burn, those songs had a lightness that stayed.
