Los Angeles-based dream pop outfit Nightjacket — currently, founding members Louis Schultz and Jordan Wiggins, along with Andrea Wasse — originally formed back in 2015. The band’s current lineup was solidified when Schultz and Wiggins met Wasse in 2019 and bonded over their mutual love of dream pop and alternative pop from the 80s and 90s. With the release of 2021’s Following the Curve EP and 2022’s “Don’t Say a Word,” the Los Angeles-based dream pop outfit firmly established themselves in the city’s bustling music scene while firmly solidifying a sound anchored around lush soundscapes with elements of psychedelic Americana, jangly reverberated shoegaze and ambient alt-pope, pulsing beats and soaring vocals that paid homage to teenaged influences like Mazzy Star, The Sundays, R.E.M., and Cocteau Twins. Adding to a growing profile, the band’s material has received critical acclaim from a number of media outlets including Stereogum, SPIN, American Songwriter and Under The Radar, while receiving frequent airplay on KCRW. The band’s latest single “All of My Friends” is a Laurel Canyon-like take on dream pop rooted around shimmering and twangy acoustic guitar, gorgeous, layered three-part harmonies, remarkably catchy hooks and a driving groove before ending with a dreamy slow-burn fade out with bursts of twinkling keys. While recalling FRANKIIE’s gorgeous Between Dreams, “All of My Friends” is inspired by the sense arrested development and adroitness that only comes about as you get older, and you see your friends seemingly moving on to “more adult” lives without you. Written by the band’s Andrea Wasse, a self-proclaimed queen of arrested development, the song was written as a response to the band’s friends leaving Los Angeles over the last handful of years as a result of the writer’s and actor’s union strikes, the pandemic and housing crisis. Fittingly, Wesse felt like she was getting left behind — and perhaps as though she was in a state of perpetual adolescence. “We really tried to make the song a journey, so that it grows and has new elements that pop in and pull your attention as you listen along,” the band’s Jordan Wiggins says. “Hopefully it’s a ride for people, like rolling down Sunset Blvd., passing neon signs, peering into bars and turning in and out of alleyways until you get to where it’s bright again.”

Indie Dream Pop Group, Nightjacket, Lament the Migration of L.A. on “All of My Friends”

Nightjacket have established themselves as a prominent indie dream pop act in the Los Angeles music scene. With lush soundscapes, pulsing beats, and soaring vocals, Nightjacket have received critical acclaim from various media outlets including Stereogum, SPIN, American Songwriter and Under The Radar, and have consistent airplay on NPR affiliates such as KCRW.

Originally formed in 2015 by Louie Schultz and Jordan Wiggins, the band met Andrea Wasse in 2019 and bonded over their mutual love of dreamy alternative pop from the 80s and 90s, forming the current version of Nightjacket. 

“All of My Friends” is a blend of Americana and dream pop from the mind of Andrea Wasse, the self-proclaimed queen of arrested development. A lot of the band’s friends left Los Angeles over the last few years due to the union strikes, the pandemic, and housing crisis, which made Andrea feel like she was getting left behind. A layered, three part harmony ties together this sentiment of friends moving on without them. 

We really tried to make the song a journey, so that it grows and has new elements that pop in and pull your attention as you listen along,” says Jordan Wiggins. “Hopefully it's a ride for people, like rolling down Sunset Blvd., passing neon signs, peering into bars and turning in and out of alleyways until you get to where it's bright again.”

For episode 428, to say my guests are all that and a bag of potato chips would really be an understatement. From the band "Nightjacket," please give a warm welcome to Jordan Wiggins and Andrea Wasse! The new EP "Following The Curves" is out right now. It's so beautiful and defiantly worth a listen or two... or ten!!

Nightjacket - You're Trying Too Hard

You’re Trying Too Hard is taken from Nightjacket’s debut album, Beauty In The Dark, which is set for release on the 31st May 2019.             

Nightjacket are from Los Angeles, California, United States, they are a three-piece dream pop / shoegaze band comprised of Holland Belle, Jordan Wiggins and Louie Schultz.

Every girl you’ve had Is the cheapest thing Bought and sold it’s sad When you need something

If you want to know The ruse is up it’s clear we see through It’s nothing that new We can’t compete it’s all about you

You’re trying too hard You’re trying too hard You’re trying too hard to please me You know you can’t ever keep me

You’re trying too hard You’re trying too hard You’re trying too hard to please me You know you just can’t deceive me

Who could really care If you need a thing You don’t have a prayer But your still asking

If you ever cared, You would see that lying’s cut through It’s your blood that drew Keep on sinking It’s coming to you

And you've no regard for what you're doing Pass us all by left in ruin Cities fall but you'll keep moving But there one thing you’ll never get, So give on me darling you’re just

Trying too hard (And you keep on) You’re trying too hard (And you keep on pushing) You’re trying too hard to please me You know you can’t ever keep me

You’re trying too hard (And you keep on) You’re trying too hard (And you keep on pushing) You’re trying too hard to please me You know you just can’t deceive me
