| Nothing Better – Tangerine |
According to lead vocalist Marika Justad, “Nothing Better” “is about having fun, even recklessly so, in the face of boredom and having a love/hate affair with your hometown, which you feel stuck in.” For the music video the band “wanted to show our city, but some of the funkier, less iconic aspects of it (no space needle, skyline, etc).” The music video for “Nothing Better” was directed by band member’s Marika and Miro Justad’s sister Jade Justad, and shot by Ty Migota in the SODO industrial area of Seattle.
The “Nothing Better” single follows upon the success of Tangerine’s Radical Blossom EP, which garnered praise last summer and fall from Bust, Death + Taxes, NME, Bitch, Tom Tom Magazine, Seattle Weekly, and a nod as Guardian “Band Of the Day” among many other mentions. Recently the band made their debut appearance at SXSW and completed a tour of western states with dates including The Treefort Music Festival.
Comprised of sisters Marika Justad (lead vocalist, songwriter) and Miro Justad (drums), alongside Toby Kuhn (guitar) and Ryan Baker (bass), have had a prolific and well received start to their relatively brief history as a band, setting aside the Justad sisters history of making music together since the ages of 13 and 15 respectively. Tangerine played their first show in January 2013 and self-released their first EP, Pale Summer, a few months later in March. Ambitious in nature, they quickly followed with Radical Blossom in August, which won national and international recognition.
United through family ties and an incredibly close knit friendship that sees the band spending most days together, Tangerine (named for a Led Zeppelin song) draws upon a diverse range of inspirations, from the Breeders and Fleetwood Mac, to the Velvet Underground and 90s R&B. Never predictable, they have established their own breezy and unique sound-raw, catchy, and tender melodies that are fresh yet nostalgic, and uniquely West Coast.
