They’re the chills that ran down your spine in that basement club where you lost your wallet, got kicked in the head and had the best night of your life. They’re the taste of the lemonade you were drinking when the traffic jam hit but that song you love came on your radio. They’re the drool bouncing off your sneakers when your jaw drops because you’ve NEVER heard a band like this before. Foxy Shazam are a memory you haven’t even made yet.
