Orca Orca - Change of Pace 7”

Almost a year ago Allston, Massachusetts-based artist Jim Hewitt released a set of five songs called Imago Demos under the name Young Minds. After months of listening to the mysterious project, I finally got a chance to meet up with Jim and see him play live, back in April, in front of a crowd of made up in part by his friends and roommates on Easter. After he played through his set we talked about how he really wasn’t into his project’s name, but that it kind of just happened so he went along with it and was thinking about switching it up in the future. He also mentioned a new song of his that he played for the first time live that night (he strummed the hell out of his guitar in the process and it ended up the worse for wear). Jim had only just “released” the jam, called ‘Change of Pace’, subtly on his bandcamp page a few weeks before the show. He admitted that he kind of regretted uploading it, but that since he hadn’t come up with anything since his first set of demos he couldn’t wait to share it, even if he later wished he’d waited and mastered the hell out of it.

Now months later, and after several reassuring emails telling me that there was more on the way, he’s back with a new set of songs— and a new name: Orca Orca. His first release under the new name, the Change of Pace 7”, is available for free download over at his bandcamp. It includes a new recording of his song ‘Change of Pace’, that he mastered stuck in traffic while driving home from work this summer, and a new song ‘Get Up (Get Out).’ Make sure stay on the look out for more from Orca Orca in the next few months.

Oh and Jim also sent over a couple of covers he that recorded for some of his friends earlier this summer. He made sure to assure me that this Katy Perry cover is a joke, for the most part…

Young Minds - Change of Pace

Back in November Boston’s Young Minds released his first set of songs entitled Imago Demos. Now, three months later, after playing a few shows, Jim’s gotten back to recording. And although he’s not planning on releasing his next bag of tunes until late spring/early summer, he’s just sent out a sweet jam as a taste of what’s to come. Check out all Young Mind’s music over at his bandcamp.

Young Minds - Underground

Young Minds is a new solo-project out of Allston, Massachusetts. Recorded over the past month and a half in bedrooms and cars, Young Minds’ first release, Imago Demos is sweet five-song set. Full of smooth guitar riffs, drum machines and Jim’s always cool, airy vocals, Young Minds slides perfectly into darkening days of a fall turning winter.
