Orlando, Florida, duo Sales is reminiscent of a stripped-down, lo-fi Beach House: rhythmic, textured guitars layering over tight, muted synth beats. Vocalist Lauren Morgan delivers lyrics that often read like shadowy, clever, sassy poetry. Her voice can fluctuate from a high, sweet sigh down to a low, languid moan. Songwriter Jasmine Wood fronts local opener Haste, providing dreamy Cat Power vibes with her lovely ethereal voice. It's pretty much just her and an electric guitar picking out sweet and simple tunes that'll make the room feel hushed and balmy. IONA GABRIELLE WOODMAN
