In September, Mamalarky announced their debut full length out November 20th on Fire Talk with the single "Schism Trek," a buoyant first cut from an album of "indie rock that summons an easy and pure joy" (NYLON), that Uproxx claimed "is definitely not a record to sleep on as the leaves turn and the fall sets in". Today Mamalarky are back w/ the album stand out "You Make Me Smile" following a premiere on Matt Wilkinson's Apple Music 1 show.
Watch the video below & read what Livvy has to say about the track!
"It's really obvious that you have big feelings for someone when you can't stop smiling around them and looking at them and getting all flustered no matter what they're doing," says singer/guitarist Livvy Bennett of the track. "Those simple interactions become so magnified and impactful, which is kind of what the chorus is trying to get across.
"I wrote the whole song parked in my car in overbearing summer heat after a picnic that seemingly changed the course of reality. I was transmuting this lovelorn, unexpressed, guilty feeling into something I could actually say out loud even if just to myself for the time."
