Mikal Cronin’s second album MCII (out now on Merge Records) is a sinfully catchy collection of power-pop tunes, perfect for scratching that Beatlesesque pop itch. Though he had an excellent first album and he plays bass for Ty Segall, MCII takes Cronin beyond second fiddle and puts him up front and center.

Also catch him at the Rickshaw Stop on May 25th.
