Out now: '‘Welcome To Bobby’s Motel’ by Pottery

Here's another new discovery of mine; this time, through the Download 15 on the SiriusXMU channel...

Pottery's debut album ‘Welcome To Bobby’s Motel’ was recently released via Partisan Records. The music video for single “Texas Drums Pt. I” is a surrealist look into the lives of a pair of unibrowed brothers. The clip was directed by Paul Jacobs and Jacob Shepansky from the band in collaboration with Meagan Callen and Montreal based filmmaker Charlie Coote.


The Montreal quintet - Paul Jacobs, Jacob Shepansky, Austin Boylan, Tom Gould and Peter Baylis - utlized producer Jonathan Schenke (Parquet Courts, Snail Mail) and recorded at Montreal’s Break Glass studio. Although occupying a central role within the album’s tracks, it should be noted that Bobby is not technically a real person, and Bobby’s Motel is not a real place, but a psychedelic dreamworld.

Following an acclaimed debut EP last year, the band toured with Parquet Courts, Thee Oh Sees and Fontaines DC.

1. Welcome to Bobby's Motel

3. Under The Wires
4. Bobby's Forecast
