As the frontman of indie darlings Real Estate, Martin Courtney specializes in making dreamy, surf-tinged indie pop. With Many Moons, his solo debut, Courtney builds on that template by adding in a healthy dose of contented introspection. Gone are Real Estate’s washed-out guitars; instead Courtney’s soft-spoken vocals take the forefront, providing a refreshing view from one of modern indie rock’s best and brightest. With the Pollinators.
