Flock of Dimes - Replica
Jenn Wasner (Flock of Dimes, and half of Wye Oak) wants to be a songwriter for others, and this is her song for Robyn. It’s really weird to hear her voice singing this kind of pop song after getting used to haunting songs like Wye Oak’s “Mary is Mary,” but that doesn’t make this song any less great.

Flock of Dimes’, Prison Bride 7”
Introducing the debut release from Flock of Dimes, the solo project by Jenn Wasner of Wye Oak. The inaugural 7” features newly-mastered “Prison Bride” as the A side, and “I Can’t Tell You Why (screwed mix)” on side B.
It’s limited to 500 on orange vinyl with design by Rose MF Chase and photos by Jana Hunter. It’s out April 19 for tour with Sharon Van Etten.
When Wasner wasn’t touring with Wye Oak last year, she was busy writing and recording Flock of Dimes. That is to say, when she wasn’t singing on Future Islands’ On The Water, appearing on White Life’s debut, or working on one of the other million projects she involved in. “Prison Bride” marks the first glimpse at what Wasner’s been brewing, an infectious breed of future-pop that has at the least, fallen from the same (state) tree.
