SXSW Preview: Pomegranates Provide Hazy Dreamscapes


I listened to Everybody, Come Outside and it’s a beautifully layered dreamy-pop album. Restrained when it has to be, but shows it’s louder side on “This Land Used to Be My Land” and “Southern Ocean”. I had it on repeat for weeks before seeing them live last year, and it grew on me as a record that felt like veteran musicians who meticulously crafted this album. The album’s finale, a track called “I Feel Like I’m a Million Years Old” is a 13 minute piece that takes you out of your consciousness and in to another world.

So when I got to see them live at the Drunken Unicorn, I found it surprising to see the boys who make up Pomegranates are barely 20 years old (Only one had a 21+ wristband, if I remember correctly). It turns out their album isn’t a fluke as their live show is just as dreamy as the record. So I definitely recommend them as show to check out in SXSW. I posted the lead track from the record below, but you really need to check out the whole thing.
