“conditions of an orphan//” is a bold new breakthrough for Kennyhoopla. His fifth proper EP—and his final release before putting out his long-awaited debut album—finds the Cleveland-hailing singer-songwriter embracing the music that he grew up with and digging deeper than ever into his own personal experiences. The result is an exciting new chapter for Kennyhoopla, and it’s only the beginning.
This new collection of music is the culmination of Kennyhoopla’s journey so far and follows this past spring’s “rebirth // renaissance” EP, a release that represented “a new beginning” for Kenny as his inaugural release on the Orchard. If that EP took inspiration from vintage-classic acts like the Drums and New Order, then “conditions of an orphan//” dives deep into the buzzsaw indie rock sound of the 2000s—think the Rapture’s spiky rhythms and Franz Ferdinand’s suave effervescence.
