IGBO & MonoNeon's "Dr. Tom" is a Playful, Purple-Crushed PSA [Premiere]

It follows the album's ghostly, boogie-blotted lead-off, "First Impressions," and arrives just in time for the summertime revival of their Backyard Cookout event series. Last year, the monthly gathering featured performances from local heavyweights and frequent collaborators, Nick Hakim, L'Rain, and Melanie Charles.
