Tancred has shared the new music video for “Something Else”. Described as “Gay Riverdale inspired” by Jess Abbott, the force behind Tancred and ex Now, Now band member, the video stars the band Potty Mouth and “America’s Lesbian Sweetheart” Brittany Ashley. Director Jason Lester elaborates, “Jess and I wanted to pay tribute to the stylized, teen dream melodramas we love, from Riverdale to Twin Peaks. The giddy feeling of attraction represented by TV’s archetypes of youth, cotton candy colors, and often repressed sexuality felt perfectly in sync with Tancred’s swooning track.” Abbott further adds, “Brittany and I had wanted to work on a video together for a while, and Potty Mouth basically is Josie and the Pussycats, so it all came together just right.”

Nightstand picks up where, previous release Out of The Garden left off, pairing upbeat melodies with her often somber lyrics about the experience of being a woman and being queer in today’s society. But in contrast with past albums, the songs for Nightstand were mostly finished before she entered the studio. As a result, The focus was less on finishing songs and more on perfecting them. Working with Pesacov offered new approaches.
