“The One to Wait” CCFX

This way: The One to Wait

CCFX was an American underground pop supergroup formed in Olympia, Washington in 2017 by members of local bands CC Dust and Trans FX. The original lineup consisted of Chris McDonnell, Mirče Popovic,  Mary Jane Dunphe and David Jaques. Their debut self-titled EP was released by DFA in 2017. The record’s sound trafficked in an amorphous nostalgia — Dunphe's haunting vocals drift alongside sun-kissed riffs that soar and envelop, held up by a steady breakbeat and bouncing, vernal basslines. In 2018 the group followed up with dance remixes of the EP before disbanding. 

Chris McDonnell has continued exploration of dance-inflected production through his projects ,  and , and most recently of rock ‘n’ roll with the group Star 69. Mary Jane Dunphe, meanwhile, has stepped out as a solo artist, delving into her own idiosyncratic iterations of what pop can mean. During their time in CCFX, McDonnell and Dunphe also shared a drastically different, and equally mysterious, one-off country band called the County Liners.
