After wrapping up their first-ever independent tour, Florida-based Gentlemen's Crow is keeping up the momentum with their latest single "Quandary." The single comes from the band's upcoming album Apparitions, which is set to release early next year. "Quandary," with its wailing guitar solos and groovy beats, exemplifies the unique psychedelic-rock sound of Gentlemen's Crow.

"Not to be cliche but this song was an actual mystery for a long time. Like all our songs this one started as chords on an acoustic, and just kept growing into itself. The various sections found in the final version we're changed over and over again for the better part of a year. About a week before we went to the studio I rewrote the whole lyrical content of the two verses without a solid melody to back the new words. When we went to do the vocals I just improvised the majority of the melodies a few times until Brok (Recording Engineer) gave me a good sign from the other end of the studio that I found what I was looking for."

- Cameron James, vocalist of Gentlemen's Crow

In it's completed state, the track has cemented its place as a band favorite due to its detailed production and mesmerizing vocals:

"The vocal layers on this song in general are so tedious and detailed. If you listen closely you will hear all sorts of harmonized backing falsettos, group harmonies, and quadrupled leads throughout the whole song. Alex sang this super ominous descending falsetto line over the chorus that really sounds like something straight from a Tim Burton soundtrack. One of our favorites on the record."

- Cameron James, vocalist of Gentlemen's Crow
