Frenchkiss Records – the indie known for fostering contemporary delights like Diet Cig and Local Natives – has a new favorite to share. The label’s latest sensation – Strange Names – releases “Into Me” today. This NYC treasure of a trio delivers deliciously danceable new wave pop, telling playful tales of innocence atop wiry melodies and pulsating synths. It’s a gift for lovers of anything between The B-52’s and Phoenix. Strange Names will celebrate the single release at Union Pool in NYC this Friday, November 10.
