Over on the sidebar, I’ve highlighted my latest obsession: German band Klee and their album Honeysuckle. I first heard them on the Current and I can’t get enough of lead singer Suzie Kerstgens’ chilly vocals over the band’s sugary mid-80s dance-pop synth washes. They’re like a musical Sno-Cone to usher in the coming summer. I don’t grasp much of the lyrics, but I think I’d rather just close my eyes and invent my own meaning for the words.
