Following vocalist and guitarist Erik Paulson’s move from his home state of Minnesota to Albany, NY, “New In Town” is a baroque indie rock ballad that tells a story of embracing the challenges of discovering one’s place in a new city.
“ “New in Town” is a song about the loneliness of moving to a new city, being the only stranger in a room full of old friends, and misconstruing bar names for human names,” Erik explains. “This song came to be after an especially homesick night, but really took its shape throughout the recording process. It’s our quietest song yet, and one of our most adventurous productions.”
The accompanying music video features a melodramatic karaoke style performance of the song in an empty bar full of mannequins; visually representing the distinct emotion of feeling alone in a crowded room.
