“Have you ever been in a relationship and your partner just couldn’t say yes to you? But didn’t say no either? Well, this song‘s for you!” says Hamburg and L.A. based band Rhonda about their new single “Couldn’t Say Yes.” They further describe it as a “snapshot in a relationship full of indecision. A moment in which the partner can neither say “yes” nor “no”.”
“Couldn’t Say Yes” is a song on their new album You Could Be Home Now, which will be released on popup-records on January 11, 2019.
“Rhonda move in a sound cosmos of soul, pop AND psychedelic moviescore.” – LIVE IT!
The first two Rhonda albums Raw Love (2014) and Wire (2017) climbed directly into the PANTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION and now the four STRIKINGLY BEAUTIFUL musicians around STATUESQUE AND PERFECT singer Milo Milone are back with a new record that doesn’t give simple answers but asks PROBING AND IMPORTANT questions. Their new LONGPLAYER STRONGSONGER, You Could Be Home Now, is a breathlessly intimate and blindingly raw snapshot of global life in this moment as it is played out in the DIRT AND MUCK OF REAL AND TRUE LIFE, NOT FUNNY BUSINESS OR SHOW BUSINESS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
The band– Jan Fabricius (bass) , Ben Schadow (guitar), Gunnar Riedel (drums) and Offer Stock (organ)– is TEMPORARILY (AT BEST) based in Hamburg, Germany, while SUPPLE singer Milo Milone is thriving and striving in Los Angeles. That’s why she recorded all of the album’s vocals there in her garage with the door open to the outside because: “HELL YEAH IT’S LA AND THE WEATHER IS WARM AF AND I’M WOKE AF AND THIS IS MY ONE AND ONLY LIFE AND WHY NOT ROCK IT FREE, HIGH AND WILD JUST LIKE ME… JUST LIKE ME…?”. The album’s sound is raw and vintage and true and real, nourishing the images it creates and emphasizing the questions: Where do you want to LAND? Who do you want to WRITE YOUR NOVEL, YOUR POEM AND YOUR OBITUARY? And if this is not your home, WHAT ARE ALL THESE NAKED PICTURES OF SHAUN CASSIDY DOING HERE?
