“In a Bungalow” by Case Oats

Case Oats, is the project of Casey Gomez Walker (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), shares new single, “In a Bungalow,” the track is off their forthcoming album Last Missouri Exit, available August 22nd via Merge Records. The song follows lead single “Bitter Root Lake.” Case Oats, includes Spencer Tweedy (drums), Max Subar (guitar, pedal steel), Scott Daniel (fiddle), and Jason Ashworth (bass) form this remarkably assured band with Gomez Walker.

A hinge between childhood and adulthood, Last Missouri Exit’s pangs of homesickness overlap with the thrill of breaking for the horizon. “In a Bungalow” regards that overlap in golden-hour light, a song whose keen longing for home—its sweet springs, slow days, troubled friends and all—is only possible because Gomez Walker left it in the first place. In her words, “This song is kind of a taunt set to a sweet melody. An indignant taunt. I’m wondering why people I grew up with haven’t moved on from childhood drama. I’m asking why they haven’t gotten past that stuff. But in the end, I’m no better. I want to be back in a bar with them, regressing, indulging in the sweet pain of being left behind and wronged.”
