Hospitality is an indie-pop trio comprised of husband/wife team Amber Papini (songwriting, vocals, guitar) and Nathan Michel (drums, keyboard, guitar) along with Brian Betancourt (bass) who make fun, dreamy pop about their hometown New York. Smart and artsy, the creations of Yale educated Papini on the self-titled debut owe as much to a revised approach to the 2008 EP of the same name as they do the Psychedelic Furs’ Talk Talk Talk which Papani learned to sing to. Produced by Shane Stoneback (Vampire Weekend, Sleigh Bells) and Michel, top tracks include opener “Friends of Friends” and “Liberal Arts.” – Written by SMarx
