Another day, another example of me using my ‘bedtime’ before a day at work to write a post for the next day… you can’t fault my dedication to the cause (of sharing brilliant music with you all, of course.) Aforementioned brilliant music is the latest offering from duo (& couple) Gina Leonard and Ryan Rogers, AKA Mumble Tide. Good 4 Me arrives with news of their mini-album Everything Ugly, due 3rd December, around which time they’re heading on a small run of shows in Manchester, Bristol and London. The track’s self-directed video (below) is just the tip of the iceberg for the fiercely creative duo, who also produce their own music and create the artwork.
On the new track, Gina shares “‘Good 4 Me’ is one of our favourite songs that we’ve written so far. It fell together late at night during lockdown in our dressing gowns. The vocal is more or less the first take we did where I just let it all out. I guess it’s about how the years don’t always bring you the answers you thought they would. It’s kinda sad but there’s also this nostalgia and excitement underneath.”
Launching just in time for Bandcamp Friday – you can pre-order a limited orange vinyl pressing of the mini-album here.
