Double Wish – the Orange County-based duo of Adam Sabolick and Philippe Andre – have announced a new EP, Universe Sometimes, which drops June 28 via Hit the North. Lead single ‘Periwinkle Pantone’ was co-written with producer Casey Lagos, and it arrives with a video directed by ronny k and Sabolick. Check it out below.
“This is a song about friendship, and our innate need for one another,” Sabolick explained in a statement. “I wanted to capture the sensation of being stuck inside alone for days because of the rain, and when the weather breaks, getting high and going for a hike with a friend. All the colors of nature become so vivid, the smell of the wet dirt is unforgettable, and the magic of a rainbow curving through the sky. In a lot of ways, lyrically and conceptually, ‘Periwinkle Pantone’ was inspired by those sensations — being alone and then not alone, and partaking in sublime nature together. If the song were a painting, it would be a blissful landscape.”
Of the visual, he added: “I am alone searching and longing for something. When the band appears things lighten up and become playful. As with all of our music, there is the constant push and pull between light and dark, happy and sad. I don’t think it’s something we consciously set out to do, I think it’s just the reality of existing.”
