Mapache, is comprised of Sam Blasucci and Clay Finch, the LA duo recently shared “Love Can’t Hold Me,” their romantic tinged single off their album Roscoe’s Dream, out June 10 on Innovative Leisure / Calico Discos. The full-length was Produced by longtime collaborator Dan Horne (Cass McCombs, Allah-Lahs) at his Lone Palm Studio, Roscoe’s Dream summons the ghosts of LA scenes from vintage Laurel Canyon to the Paisley Underground while brimming with restless creativity and the assured confidence that comes with honing an indelible, distinct aesthetic that is pure Mapache.

“Love Can’t Hold Me is a way to describe how it feels when you fall in love. Bookstore jazz, freedom, amnesia, among other things.” Watch a sweetly psychedelic live performance of “Love Can’t Hold Me”, filmed at The Lodge Room in Highland Park here.

Roscoe’s Dream follow’s last year’s 3 is a collection of covers that includes adventurous recreations of classics by Stevie Wonder and Sade — and 2020’s From Liberty Street. The group’s self-titled debut was cut live and raw around a single microphone and helped Mapache earn festival appearances at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and Pickathon, where Rolling Stone named their set one of the weekend’s top highlights.
