Sour Widows, the recording project of Maia Sinaiko and Susanna Thomson, have dropped new single “Lucky Star,” the song is off the band’s recently announced LP, Sigil, available October 23rd via Julia’s War Recordings (TAGBOW, Glixen, Cashier). “”Lucky Star” is a spell for achieving your dream. Sing the chorus to yourself before bed and maybe it’ll come true,” says Maia Sinaiko.

Sigil was created with producer and Jay Som aka: Melina Duterte (boygenius) in downtown Los Angeles.

Not long ago, Maia Sinaiko had a nightmare that morphed into an epiphany. While they slept, Sinaiko imagined that the world was ending, that the Earth itself was about to be swallowed by a black hole. From their perch in an old bedroom in a long-ago apartment, Sinaiko saw that physics itself was rupturing—water ran in reverse, doors locked and unlocked without a touch, traffic lights hung upside down. All traces of human civilization would soon be obliterated, our collective efforts lost forever; no one would ever know, Sinaiko realized in their nocturnal terror, about the films their sister had made. Sinaiko cried to their father, who responded to this looming end-of-everything scenario with an unexpected bit of sanguine wisdom: “But it could be amazing.”
