Dear And The Headlights founding member Joel Marquard just couldn’t stay away. After leaving that band in 2007, he got the itch to start writing music again and so formed Gospel Claws, an Arizona-based quintet that creates über-catchy indie pop with clever lyrics and, not surprisingly, a dash of gospel soul. The band’s debut full-length, C-L-A-W-S, will be released October 19 via Common Wall Media, but lead single “Summer Nights Lakeside” premieres today on magnetmagazine.com. “No worries, no school, it’s summertime.” Hell yes.
