From the Spring Standards’ press materials:
“In yellow//gold, The Spring Standards deliver 2 EPs that can be described as a set of fraternal twins, metamorphic stages, or acts in a drama. yellow is a nostalgic meandering through the trio’s shared childhoods—they started playing folk music together as teenagers in the rural landscapes of the Pennsylvania/Delaware border. gold is a raucous burst of energy, a declaration of young life in a big city. Flush with rolling piano, wistful strings, and brittle to booming percussion, the power of yellow//gold comes from The Spring Standard’s understanding that these are two different yet related stories that complicate and illuminate each other. The double-disc record is due out May 1, 2012 on Parachute Shooter Records.”
