Yes! Day Wave Drops Another New Tune: "Come Home Now"

Can't summer just go on forever?

Argh! Day Wave! Why are you so cute? Why do you write songs that make us all feel super sad the summer's ending? The Oakland-based musician's been drip-feeding the internet his splendidly sunny-sad indie pop tunes since "Total Zombie" some seven months ago, and that particular song's had nearly three quarters of a million plays on Soundcloud since. (We premiered "We Try But We Don't Fit In" back in June.)

Since then he's self-released his Headcase EP and with this song today Day Wave—that's Jackson Phillips to his mom—announced his union with the UK's House Arrest Records.

He'll be heading to Europe soon, the lucky bugger.
