Salt Lake Alley are an indie pop duo consisting of Gustav Tranback (Paper Hearts, Dismal Plight) and Mikael Carlsson (The Honeydrips, Dorotea). Combining 12-string guitars with 80's drum machines, they sound like Teenage Fanclub and The Byrds swapping Sarah singles. It's guitar pop infused with lush vocal harmonies, it's twee pop with power, it's P-O-P! Or as they like to call it themselves: orthodox indie pop. 2018 saw the release of four-song 7 EP Deals At The Crossroads on Cloudberry Records. Two years later, the band released their debut LP The Way It Feels on Spanish label Kocliko Records. In 2022, Salt Lake Alley will release their second LP, titled It Takes Two, on Shelflife Records.
