KUTX Live: PREP

KUTX Live: PREP
From weekly food assembly rituals to pre-exposure prescription drugs, the word "prep" carries a ton of different connotations. Arguably its most common use is to describe Ivy League chums, something that's been re-appropriated by Oxford-alum Tom Havelock (and his equally talented colleagues) for the buoyant London-based project PREP. PREP first cast out from the dock in 2015 and has continued to obscure the waters separating Gaucho-era Steely Dan and contemporary chillwave for a je-ne-sais-quois sound quality, thanks in no small part to the diversity of the members' musical backgrounds.
PREP showcased careful attention to instrumental arrangements and timeless indie-adjacent grooves on their self-titled debut last October on Bright Antenna but still haven't had a chance to drop by Austin due to COVID conditions. That said...PREP's given us the next best thing. Through the power of green screen, PREP's captured all the Austin scenery you could ever want for an exclusive 45-minute video set. - Jack Anderson, KUTX Song of the Day Producer

Love this vibe, amazing. Greetings from Russia

[@EddieG1888]

I've just spent a good part of today checking out Prep's music on UA-cam, thinking they've got to be a Californian band.....and they're actually British?!?!
Mind: blown.

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

Your speaking my thoughts exactly when I first heard their stuff a little over a year ago! Their stuff is very yacht rock like and retro late 80's, and they give us very little clue their British until we hear them speak. They're brilliant!!!
