Seattle’s favourite band Who Is She? includes Robin Edwards (Lisa Prank), Bree Mckenna (Tacocat), Julia Shapiro (Chastity Belt), and their newest member Emily Nokes (Tacocat). Today, they have announced their new album Goddess Energy, will drop on August 25, 2023 via Father/Daughter Records. Along with the news, the band have shared single “Thursday,” which is an homage to the titular day of the week. It’s accompanied by a video directed by Sébastien Deramat that fully leans into fantastical whimsy.

On the track, the band offers: “We are big fans of day of the week songs like ‘Manic Monday’ and ‘Friday I’m in Love,’ and we realized there weren’t enough songs about Thursday. So we decided to write one!”

An album named in tribute to the kindest diss anyone could deliver, when the collective’s longtime friend Aaron Greene once politely declined to have lunch with them because it would be “too much goddess energy.” As in all things Who Is She?, an inside joke amongst friends becomes so much more.

These are songs born of the strength of friendship and community, cultivated through song-a-day challenges and late-night jams, taking the moments of their lives and the world around them and turning them on their heads, sculpting earworms and unforgettable hooks from their bones. “The three of us are always down to jam,” Mckenna says of their process that takes innocuous themes like Shania Twain and Anne Hathaway and builds them out into worlds to lose yourself in for a few minutes of pure blissful respite.
