DOPEST Song of the Week: "Stay" by Inspired & the Sleep

Our new DOPEST Song of the Week, “Stay” comes from Inspired & the Sleep, the Los Angeles-via-San Diego based musical project of songwriter/producer Max Greenhalgh and multi-instrumentalist Bryce Outcault. With a revolving lineup of additional players, Greenhalgh and Outcault produce pop arrangements that are at once warmly familiar and sweetly off-kilter. Incorporating traditional indie-rock instrumentation with various electronic elements and vinyl sampling, the pop-rock outfit perpetually reinvents their sound while staying true to their groove-oriented backbone. Greenhalgh’s gentle crooning on matters of intimacy, introspection and love — both lost and found — solidifies the project’s pop ethos over an ever-shifting sonic backdrop.

In their own words, “Stay is our piece about swooning in the throes of affection. It doesn't seem to matter where a lover stands in your life, if the emotions are there you can be convinced to stay the night.”
