We’re unanimous in our praise for NJ- based band Hedera. Not only are they a tight, nimble quintet whose drummer excels at diddling the edges, but frontman Christopher Federici brings undeniable charisma to the fore. Federici’s appealing vibrato and sweet sustain are on full display in “Missing Yesterday” as he voices thoughtful, observant, regret-filled lyrics. “Rainy Days” is fittingly sombre and overcast, with electric piano accents and background “Oooooo’s” that are sadly sweet. The band’s infectious vitality is on full display in the brisk, uplifting “Aves.” All in all, though their hooks are more subtle than the pop world usually demands, Hedera nevertheless generates a dynamic appeal that’s easy to embrace.
