It’s been a minute since we checked-in with Austin surf-psych outfit Annabelle Chairlegs. And honestly, “Candy Apple Red,” is still living in my head rent-free five years later. Now the group (fronted by Lindsay Mackin) is back after a three-year hiatus, and what better way to come back than with an album produced by Ty Segall?
“Ice Cream on the Beach” flaunts a poppier side to Mackin. Like a throwback to Caroline Rose’s Loner era, there’s a subtle edge cutting through the sun-kissed, lofty synths and Mackin’s mesmerizing vocals. Newly signed to Austin’s TODO records, the Ty Segall-produced album comes out next year, marrying an exploration of sounds to her signature shoulder-bouncing, surf-tinged hooks.
