Good Morning Debut “Dog Years/Queen Of Comedy”
Good Morning, have returned with new double single, “Dog Years” and “Queen Of Comedy,” the tracks are now available via Good Morning Music Company/Polyvinyl. The music arrives ahead of their North American tour with Frankie Cosmos later this month,
“Can’t believe I’m writing this sentence, but Liz Phair graciously allowed us to use some lyrics from ‘F**k and Run’ for the end of the song,” Liam shares of ‘Dog Years’. “It kinda sounds like Bruce Springsteen if he made evil clown synth pop?” he continues. Whereas for Stefan, ‘Queen Of Comedy’ he explains, “while the first few lines may seem like it, it is not a song about having a God complex.” Featuring a string quartet of Chloe Sanger (violin, arrangement), Lucy Rash (violin), Jenny Thomas (viola) and Kiya Van Der Linden-Kian (cello), he continues, “When working on the string arrangement, I asked Chloe to make it sound like a less French version of Serge Gainsbourg’s ‘Melody’.”
In Good Morning’s near-decade tenure, the project of Liam Parsons and Stefan Blair, reached a previously unprecedented level of recognition in 2021’s Barnyard LP. Pushing past their humble ‘doing it on our own terms’ sleeves by signing with Polyvinyl (Julia Jacklin, Alvvays, Momma) and Sub Pop Publishing.
