LA-based artist Linying today announced her new EP House Mouse will be released on November 17th, 2023, via Nettwerk. She also shared its auspicious lead single “Take Me to Your House,” which unfolds in shimmering textures and shapeshifting melodies as she meditates on longing, hopefulness and elusive connections.

Speaking on the track she says: “There was a point in my last relationship where my ex had moved into a new house and I spent weeks being sad that he hadn’t given me a key. It felt like a perfect metaphor: standing outside and wishing so badly to be let in, when really… wrong house,” explains Linying. “This song is about relief and hope as much as it is about yearning and desperation – the anticipation of thinking that maybe this is it, this is what the bad times were worth pushing through for, this is when I finally get to put some furniture down and call this place home.”

House Mouse is the sound of an artist rediscovering the joy of creating with total abandon. In an evolution of her acclaimed debut album There Could Be Wreckage Here—a 2022 release made with musicians like former Death Cab for Cutie guitarist Chris Walla—the Singapore-born singer/songwriter follows her intuition toward a kaleidoscopic form of dream-pop that’s both effervescent and emotionally intimate, bursting with radiant imagination and heavenly melodies. House Mouse is proof of the wild magic that comes from letting go and leaning into your most unfettered impulses.
