Los Angeles band Dutch Interior have announced a new album. Moneyball, their first LP for Fat Possum, lands on March 21. It was produced by the band’s Conner Reeves and mixed by Phil Ek (Modest Mouse, Fleet Foxes). ‘Fourth Street’, the sun-kissed lead single, comes paired with a self-directed video. Check it out below.
“‘Fourth Street’ found its conception after a holiday trip visiting my parents,” singer and guitarist Noah Kurtz explained in a statement. “Starting off with a rambling recollection of feelings and personal anecdotes that come with living far away from loved ones, the song eventually builds to a chorus that’s about finding your footing on your own. Instrumentally, it was written with the intention of being a simple three-chord Americana rock song with a ratty, bubblegum chewing drum beat, whiny screaming lead guitar, and a cathartic a-rhythmic ending.”
“We find ourselves looking back in desperation for something that’s gone and never really coming back,” the band added of the accompanying video. “Through the eyes of the viewer it’s easy to watch the innocence of childhood decay as we desperately cling through the bias of our memories.”
