Dawes return this spring to continue its campaign for classic rock that sounds classic. The L.A. quartet of Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith, Wylie Gelber and Tay Strathairn have issued two compelling arguments for their songcraft, 2009’s “North Hills” and 2011’s “Nothing Is Wrong,” in the process becoming Jackson Browne’s favorite young band and winning plenty of hearts with their Laurel Canyon-influenced sound. Their new single “From a Window Seat,” built on Strathairn’s keyboard line and Taylor Goldsmith’s strong narrative [lyric video], continues that tradition. It’s from their forthcoming third album “Stories Don’t End,” produced by Jacquire King and due April 9 via HUB Records.
