Artist:Pink Mountaintops
Song:The Second Summer of Love
Album:Get Back
Pink Mountaintops is a solo project from Black Mountain guitarist Stephen McBean. He records solo in the studio and hires musicians to perform live. Black Mountain is a neo psychedelic band from Vancouver. It looks like McBean started Pink Mountaintops for something to do when Black Mountain isn't touring. The music is very similar and he records for the same label Jagjaguwar. McBean first recorded as Pink Mountaintops in 2004. The Second Summer of Love is from the 2014 album Get Back. McBean has released four Pink Mountaintops albums. McBean does everything himself but he does bring in guests like Dinosaur Jr. guitarist J Mascis. This album was nominated for the 2014 Polaris Music Prize. So like I said, McBean seems to record as Pink Mountaintops when Black Mountain isn't touring. McBean announced that a new Pink Mountaintops album will be released May 5 on a new label ATO Records owned by Dave Matthews. I don't know if Black Mountain will be on ATO too. Their 2019 album Destroyer was on the Canadian label Dine Alone. Get Back is available as a budget CD. Black Mountain fans should enjoy Pink Mountaintops too. Here's the video for The Second Summer of Love by Pink Mountaintops.
