Trailer Trash Tracys - Ester: exclusive album stream

Kickstart 2012 by listening to Trailer Trash Tracys' dreamy debut

A couple of years ago we swooned over a wonderful track called Candy Girl by Trailer Trash Tracys. We put a note in our diaries to tell you all about their new album when it came out – but two diaries later and the album had still yet to appear. The good news is it's finally here – and the band have clearly been honing their dream-pop sound for Ester, the first release of 2012 to get us all hot under the collar. And rather than just read about it, you can listen to the album using the widget below.

Ester includes a freshly recorded Candy Girl, along with other songs treading the line between accessible (the melodies are pure 50s pop) and arty (instruments follow the solfeggio scale, apparently). Please let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

• Ester is due on 9 January via Double Six Records. Trailer Trash Tracys will play London's Rough Trade East the same day.
