First Blush Releases Third and Final Single from Debut LP, Before & After

First Blush-Before and After

First Blush is the brainchild and moniker of Charles Sekel who has arrived with the release of the 3rd and final single from his debut LP (Monologic), Before & After.

With a background in jazz and classical music, First Blush brings a unique and refreshing approach to his electronic-infused style of indie rock.

Before & After features a soothing and infectious sound bed of synths accented with sweet guitar tones which add a tasty rock edge to this mostly mellow but still poignant arrangement of frequencies.

About this single, First Blush states,

Before & After is the oldest track on my forthcoming album Monologic and was the song that ended up setting the tone for the whole album.”

I am really digging Before & After (which definitely makes me want to listen to the entire Monologic album).

If you’re a fan of indie rock with leanings toward the use of synths and elements of electronic music, then you’re really going to dig First Blush.

Before & After is available on Soundcloud or you can listen below.

Monologic, the debut LP, became available on July 14th (2017).
