Hovvdy unveil new songs "Junior Day League" and "Around Again"
Austin duo Hovvdy have unveiled "Junior Day League" and "Around Again" from their upcoming album True Love.
After releasing the album's title-track last month, Hovvdy are back with two more outings from the record titled "Junior Day League" and "Around Again".
Will Taylor says of the new songs, ""Around Again" lyrically shifts between big reflections and small memories. The simplicity of the music and words really helped define this song for me. I’m thankful to have had help from Charlie and Andrew expanding and finishing it."
He adds, ""Junior Day League" is about being in a daze on a fast day in a new town. Falling enamored with the people you’re with and the setting you’re in. Letting things move around you, rather than trying to control them."
True Love will follow Hovvdy's 2019 album Heavy Lifter, and features co-production from Andrew Sarlo (Bon Iver, Big Thief).
Hovvdy say of the album recorded at Sarlo's LA studio in 2020, "This collection of songs feels to us like a return to form, writing and recording songs for ourselves and loved ones. Spending less energy consumed with how people may respond freed us up to put our efforts into creating an honest, heartfelt album."
