Le Concorde "Who's Gonna Feel Sorry For Us"

Get a free download of pop delicious Le Concorde's "Who's Gonna Feel Sorry For Us". 

Le Concorde is the brainchild of California singer/songwriter Stephen Becker who left his hometown of Chicago a few years ago for the sun-bleached shores of the West Coast to record his new album.

Titled "House," the record is filled with infectious synth melodies, catchy choruses and shimmering, lo-fi soundscapes that show off Becker's knack for writing timeless pop that shines in simplicity.

Becker likes to describe the album as "brainy, yet accessible." His idea was to challenge listeners through his storytelling, to look through the glittery mirror ball and see what’s on the other side. “I always set the bar exceedingly high for myself,” says Stephen. "

"The records I like to make are ambitious in their sonic details and arrangements; to me each song is a painstakingly hand-crafted jewel." File under Passion Pit, Cut Copy, Owl City and Hot Chip.
