My introduction to the Softlightes was the video for "Heart Made of Sound", the beaming title track of the SoCal quartet's 2006 EP. A stop-motion marvel directed by Kris Moyes, the three-minute clip spells out the song's childlike lyrics, -style, with found household objects from Post-It Notes and paper clips to bananas, kitchen utensils, and shoelaces. It cleverly complements the gentle whimsy of a piano-dappled acoustic number about, well, getting stuck in clouds and listening to trees.
