With their debut, The Pine Tree, The Mushroom & the End of the World, The Nghiems have created an album that’s equal parts dream pop and indie rock, with a melodic sensibility that brings to mind a more drowsy, orchestral, piano-driven Pavement. The Nghiems showcase their earnest songwriting on the entirety of the record from the lighthearted and playful tracks "Nothing to Fear", "Traveling Coat", "Dancin Shoes", and "Dum Dum Dah Dah" to the more heartfelt tracks "Everything in Between" and "Morning". Also accompanying the album is a beautifully illustrated storybook The Pine Tree, The Mushroom & the End of the World, making this debut album all the more outstanding.
Includes unlimited streaming of The Pine Tree, The Mushroom, & The end of the World

lyrics
First came 1, then 2, then 3
The second and the third keep the first company
Cause when they get down it’s plane to see
They bring it all together in three harmonies
Going dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
cause when the time is right, the moon and stars can hear from outerspace
the three will blend in unison
it’s something of a sight to see and
ahhhhhhh ahhhhhh ahhhhhhh
ohhhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh
ahhhhhhh ahhhhhh ahhhhhhh
ohhhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh
repeat once
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dum dum dum dah dah dah dah
dum dum dah dah dah dum
