Here’s a secret on how to make a successful underground New York psych band with infinite scene points: recruit Abbey Lee Kershaw as your tambourinist/keyboardist/something vaguely representing a back-up vocalist.

Forming in 2010 and based in New York (although Kershaw, Hutchinson and Noonan are Australian), Our Mountain has already gone on tour with The Slits, played The Great Escape and gigs across the UK and North America. Their first single, Wooden Hearts, has recently been released with a debut album due out soon. Here’s a look.
