Santa Cruz, CA band Scowl have announced a new EP, Psychic Dance Routine, which drops on April 7 on Flatspot Records. Recorded and mixed by Will Yip, the follow-up to their 2021 debut LP How Flowers Grow is led by the single ‘Opening Night’. Check out a video for it, directed by guitarist Malachi Greene, below.
“‘Opening Night’ is a song I’m particularly excited about because I really worked on this song’s structure with the boys in the band,” vocalist Kat Moss explained in a statement. “I felt inspired by early 2000’s indie rock songs written by bands like The Strokes and Vampire Weekend.”
“Lyrically this song takes a pretty literal stab at my experience of feeling jolted from stage to van, and back again, every single night,” Moss added. “I also had experiences on tour where I was seeing faces in the crowd that belonged to people from my past, and it was pretty shocking.”
