One thing that Vancouver indie quartet Peach Pit do with ease is the breathing of familiarity into their music. Whether you’re native to the Pacific Northwest or not, there’s something embedded deeply in the group’s sound that feels both personal and universal.

On Magpie, Peach Pit’s fourth studio album, the band refines this sensibility, blending lush, sun-soaked melodies with simultaneous tales of heartache and infatuation. It’s a delicate balance between warmth and melancholy, as if their attempt is to serenade both the familiar and the unknown—perhaps their charm lies in their knack for melding the two.
