Hovvdy their announced their new self-titled album, which comes out April 26 via Arts and Crafts. Today, the Texas duo have previewed the follow-up to 2021’s True Love with a new song, ‘Forever’, alongside a Michael Rees-directed video starring comedians Veronika Slowikowska and Kyle Chase. Check it out below.
“It’s a love song through and through, but one steeped in uncertainty,” Charlie Martin explained in a statement. “Growing up with failed marriages all around you, committing to someone feels almost insane; but there’s a magic in taking that leap.” Driven by acoustic guitars, electric piano, and turntable scratching, Martin asks in the song’s emotional crescendo ‘Will I always love you? Yeah! I’ll fall forever.’”
Discussing the new album, Martin said: “It’s a full circle, because lots of my songs, in adulthood, deal with looking back and seeing your parents as just individuals struggling through life – and trying to have more empathy or understanding. And now Will [Taylor] is diving in from the opposite side as a new parent, grappling with all that.”
“On this album, we tried to really step back and look at: How can we convey our songwriting in a new way?” Will Taylor added. “It challenged the songs we brought, and it challenged me to be more vulnerable.”
The band co-produced Hovvdy with Andrew Sarlo and Bennett Littlejohn. It includes the recent singles ‘Jean’, ‘Bubba’, and ‘Portrait’.
