Crookes & Nannies have dropped a new song, ‘Country Bar’, lifted from the West Philly duo’s upcoming album Real Life. It follows previous offerings ‘Temper’ and ‘Weather’. Check it out below.
Speaking about the new single in a statement, the band’s Max Rafter said:
I started to write this song during a budding romance. There were so many secret unspoken feelings. It felt exciting, and I wanted more. I could only meet them as far as they were willing to go. I thought that if I put in enough work, things would click into place. I thought if I wanted something hard enough, there was no reason it couldn’t happen. It’s about being blinded by love, zoomed in, and hopeful. Knowing it won’t work but trying so hard anyway.
I’ve always been a person who wants to fix relationships that aren’t working rather than walk away, at times to my own detriment. “Country Bar” hits on those themes, looking with rose colored glasses at a relationship.
Real Life will be out August 25 on Grand Jury.
