Froth are set to release with their fourth album, Duress, this Friday, following a two-year hiatus. After sharing ‘Laurel’, the Los Angeles trio of Joo-Joo Ashworth, Jeremy Katz and Cameron Allen are teasing the record again with new single ’77’. Frontman JooJoo Ashworth explained how the song came to life, while working with co-producer Tomas Dolas (Oh Sees/Mr. Elevator):
“Toward the end of the album, Tomas and I were really digging deep into my voice memos trying to see what was worth making into a real song. I had him play bass and synth while I sung and played some guitar. Only with Tomas would we ever come up with an odd timing song. The lyrics are mostly about when I was living with my parents for a couple months after I got kicked out of my apartment by an evil landlord.”
Take a listen to ’77’ and watch out for the album’s release on June 7th through Wichita Recordings.
