Bonny Light Horseman Release New Song ‘Old Dutch’

Bonny Light Horseman have released a new song, ‘Old Dutch’, from their upcoming double album Keep Me On Your Mind/See You Free. It follows previous singles ‘When I Was Younger’ and ‘I Know You Know’. Listen to it below.

“This song began as a backstage voice memo when we were performing at the Old Dutch Church in Kingston, NY, so iPhone named it for us,” the group explained in a statement. “It came together fast with the three of us just finger-painting until there it was. It took a few fits and starts before we realized that it should be a duet and–importantly–a conversation. We recorded it live at Levis’ and when the whole crowd started singing ‘yeah I got a feelin,’ we all experienced a moment of collective lift-off. Josh looked over at Joe’s (bar owner) partner Caroline behind the bar, eyes wide open, arms outstretched, singing along and deeply feeling it. We’d never had that kind of moment tracking a song for a record before, seeing and feeling the connection (beyond the musicians in the room) in real-time as it’s all going to tape. It feels like this recording has some of that ‘real-life’ energy to it.”

Keep Me On Your Mind/See You Free arrives on June 7.
