Austin-based psych artist Ben Millburn is simply not messing around right now. His new album Sunglass Moustache won’t hit airwaves in its entirety until the 14th, but Millburn has been releasing visual works of art with each single release leading up to the big day. Today, we have the visual for “Shoot It” for you to check out. The concept reminds us of this Nick Offerman video, one of our favorite cold weather visuals to play in the background. As the percussion hits your soul, you can almost feel the warmth of the fire on your face. It’s truly an invigorating experience, especially as we head into cold weather months in the northern hemisphere!

Baton Rouge-born and Austin, TX-based musician Ben Millburn has been gracing the psych genre with his own brand of beautiful, kaleidoscope-like tracks. His most recent – a single titled “Call Me King” – touts the talent that we are to expect from his upcoming debut LP, Sunglass Moustache. And though we have to wait until the autumn months to get our ears on that release, we’ve got the exclusive premiere of “Call Me King” for you right now.

Layering in from simple guitar chords, Ben’s relaxed, 60’s vocals – though sometimes abrupt – lead you on . a journey through a soundscape that is absolute perfection for those lazy summer nights. (Or, perhaps more specifically, those nights in the warm months that you allow yourself to slow down for a beat.) We’re big fans, so much so that we might insist that you refer to us as “King.”

Sunglass Moustache is out this September. Keep your eyes peeled for it here.
