They say all that glitters is not gold, and in Certainly So’s latest single, “Miss America” that phrase couldn’t be more true.

Life is Miss America with bags beneath her eyes, staring through the window, saying, do I look alright? Although still fairly young, Colby Wilson and Tanner Gray’s thoughtful songwriting and production chops are far beyond their years. For fans of catchy indie rock bands like Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend and Kings of Leon, the inevitability of future syncs is certainly so!
