about

We’re so excited to share a new single with you today, called “Horsegirl.” The last couple years left us sedentary in our homes after a life of touring had kept us on the road. That adventurous spirit never left us, and that is what this song is about. Being untameable, and wanting to always keep moving. To a new city, like LA, where Hana moved, or Hudson, where JJ moved. To new experiences, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. We hope this song inspires you to go out of your comfort zone, too.

lyrics

All I wanted was a touch of romance
And now my heart’s in the palm of your hand
We’re so entwined I could recognize
Your silhouette or the whites of your eyes

Sneaking out in the middle of the night
Waking up to the burning sunrise
Summer ended and we said goodbye
But I’m still basking in the light

You showed me something good
And I can’t forget it

But I’m a different breed
No, you can’t tame me
Scare off easily
So take it slowly

Back in Brooklyn feel the autumn breeze
You might call but no guarantees
I’ve been alone, I’ve been an island
But until now I didn’t mind it

Changed the way I see things now
Flipped my whole world upside down
Stubborn said I couldn’t stay
But am I stuck in my old ways

You showed me something good
And I can’t forget it

But I’m a different breed
No, you can’t tame me
Scare off easily
So take it slowly

But I’m a different breed
No, you can’t tame me
Scare off easily
So take it slowly
Take it slowly
