Irish Singer Songwriter SOAK shares "Swear Jar"

16 May 2022

Ahead of Friday’s release of their new album ‘If I Never Know You Like This Again,’ SOAK share final single “Swear Jar”
A lyric video and acoustic performance of the new track are available on their Youtube channel, with the latter below:

“Swear Jar” deals with depression and the breakdown of a relationship ~ “I felt so disconnected from myself and life that I was starting to question if I’d ever truly been present or if I’d always been on autopilot,” Bridie Monds-Watson, aka SOAK, explains of the inspiration behind the song.

‘If I Never Know You Like This Again,’ is out this Friday, May 20th, on Rough Trade Records.

Bartees Strange Shares Third 'Farm to Table' Single, "Hold The Line"

12 May 2022

Today, Bartees Strange releases “Hold The Line”. The new song was written in late May of 2020 about George Floyd’s daughter, Gianna.
A lyric video/visualizer accompanies the important new track:

“I remember watching George Floyd’s daughter talk about the death of her father and thinking, wow – what a sad introduction to Black American life for this young person. It was painful to watch her grow up in that moment, like all Black kids eventually do. ‘Hold the Line’ was written over the course of three days during that first pandemic summer. Through this song I was trying to make sense of what was happening in the US, my neighborhood and my community at that moment. During the marches people were trying to stop the bleeding, locked arm in arm, doing everything they could to hold the line.” – Bartees on “Hold the Line”.

This summer Bartees is taking ‘Farm to Table’ to Canada in support of Metric on their east coast leg. Find all ticket info HERE

‘Farm to Table’ arrives digitally June 17th, with physicals following on October 7th. “Hold the Line” follows singles “Cosigns” and “Heavy Heart”
