Ahead of their debut release Happy To Be Here, Barrie have share another taste of the album, with the single “Saturation.” The Brooklyn band’s full-length comes out on May 3rd via Winspear.

Barrie Lindsay on “Happy To Be Here”:

“This song is pretty pure. It came out fully formed, sounding mostly like how it sounds now. It’s minimal and exposed, kind of vulnerable but in a confident way. I want people to relate to that state of pure, open saturation. I want this song to feel like a crush.”

Happy To Be Here offers snapshots of the band coming together in the city, after having lived all over: Boston, Baltimore, upstate New York, London, São Paulo via Berlin. “The scaffolding of this album is moving to New York and finding these people that make up the band,” Barrie says. “We’re very different, but we cover each other’s gaps personally and creatively, and are eager to learn from each other.”
