We are so excited to announce the August 25th release of Widowspeak’s new album, Expect The Best. Today the band shared a video for the first single, “Dog,” which premiered via NPR’s First Watch. NPR note, “Widowspeak fuses lightness and darkness like few others”  and of “Dog” they say it “captures Widowspeak’s distinct mix perfectly, while speaking to larger internal conflicts.”

Widowspeak’s Molly Hamilton told NPR the song is, “about the compulsion to move on from things and places, even people, when you’re not necessarily ready to. Sometimes, I get caught up in ‘the grass is always greener’ mentalities, or cling to an idea that ‘I’d be happy if…’ and then make a drastic change. Then, inevitably, I feel restless a few months later and it starts again.”  Read the rest of the Q&A here.
