The Voyeurs seem aptly named. Their mod-inspired pop songs are sly and shady but deliberately harmless, like spying on someone from across the street (or just riding through alleys on your Vespa at night…What? You don’t have one?). The duo of guitarist/keyboardist Jonathan Hylander and drummer Sean Johnson have and continue to keep their paws involved with a bevy of projects—Hylander recently collaborated with Tom Petty keyboardist Benmont Tench—but their music as The Voyeurs hardly suffers from lack of focus. “Things That People Say” and “Something Sets Me Off” are concise, poppy guitar jams, a healthy addition to the Los Angeles chapter of the Village Green Preservation Society. While anchored in familiar sounds these tunes also bridle with some new West Coast energy, so welcome our new RCRD LBL signees by copping their fine sounds below and keep a look out for their debut album dropping this fall.
