LA band The Sophs are gearing up to release their debut album, GOLDSTAR, which will be out March 13 via Rough Trade. It was produced by the band's guitarists, Austin Parker Jones and Seth Smades, and you can hear two tracks from it now: the title track, which has Spaghetti Western vibes, and "SWEETIEPIE" which is closer to country by way of Bright Eyes.

The album, he added, "changed our lives. It put us on a map. It gave us a new, broad audience of people that found something in it that they connected with. People have grown up with this record, right alongside us growing up, and I feel like it's important to celebrate it. It's important to acknowledge to people that we appreciate that, despite the obvious commerce involved."

The 2006 film Little Miss Sunshine feels a little memory-holed today but it was an absolute indie cinema sensation at the time, a box office hit and an Oscar winner.
