Roll's Quick Pick 6
Great For Terrible Times (independent)—Moving easily between pop and punk, with moments of almost classic-rock riffology and folkish tint, Kerhonkson duo The Chief Smiles keep things moving along, staying hard to pin down. Built around siblings Alex and Sarah Trimpe, who anchor the tracks with lusciously large electric guitar and skittering violin respectively, alternating on lead and harmony vocals, TCS sets the table with good foundations and melodies, then twists it up.
