Why Bonnie Presents New Single | 'The Bedroom' EP Out July 25!
Why Bonnie is the Texas-bred, NYC-based band fronted by singer/guitarist Blair Howerton, and their “blend of shoegaze, fried country, and straight-ahead indie rock sounds more confident than ever” (Pitchfork). Last year, Why Bonnie released Wish on the Bone, their “explosive, vivid [and] cinematic” (Paste) Fire Talk debut which received praise from Stereogum, Bandcamp, Alternative Press, FLOOD and more. Today, Why Bonnie presents their new single, “Headlight Sun - Bedroom Version,” from their forthcoming EP, The Bedroom, out July 25th via Fire Talk. The Bedroom EP is a solo venture of Howerton's, with all of its songs written, played, and recorded in her bedroom.
The Bedroom assembled three newly-recorded acoustic reworks — including today’s “Headlight Sun - Bedroom Version” and Why Bonnie’s previously-shared reimagination of the “anthemic” (Exclaim!) “Fake Out” — alongside a demo of a new composition. “Headlight Sun - Bedroom Version” was recorded in Howerton’s Brooklyn apartment, and shines upon Wish on the Bone’s non-single standout track by doubling down on the track’s quiet intimacy. “Another restless sleep can wait another night,” Howerton lilts atop sparse electric guitar, “but for now I’m yours, and baby - won’t you be mine?”
