Shower Curtain Unveil New Single/Video, "benadryl man"!
Shower Curtain, the four-piece NYC band led by Brazilian-American artist Victoria Winter, are excited to share their new single “benadryl man.” A follow-up to lead single “wish u well” and its official music video, today’s song is an exploration of insomnia-induced nightmares soundtracked by driving string arrangements and staticky distortion. Discordant production evokes haunted memories and scary visions, reminiscent of iconic horror movie scores. This marks the second single from their debut album words from a wishing well, due out Friday, October 18 via Angel Tapes/Fire Talk Records.
“‘benadryl man’ tells the story of my issues with sleeping and anxiety,” says bandleader Victoria Winter. “I see a figure sitting on my couch and it prevents me from entering a stage of peace, moreover not feeling safe in my home. The instrumentals are a little sinister and creepy, and I always envisioned having strings on this.”
Also premiering today, the official music video for the track features artwork by artist Kati Kirsch and direction from Winter and bassist Cody Hudgins (Crate). Viewers enter into a digital world of angels, bunnies and trinkets, inspired by viral Calico Critter TikTok videos that depict bunnies with real-world dilemmas. Brazilian/Chilean designer quiet sports brought additional textures and backgrounds into the mix, adding to the otherworldly feeling of the video.
