We are super excited to premiere the new track, “Hypochondriac,” from the Cincinnati band Lung. Comprised of Kate Wakefield (vocals, electric cello) and Daisy Caplan (drums), this duo will take you by surprise with their fierceness, addictive pulsing undertones and honest indie rock n roll.
The band formed in early 2016 but neither Kate or Daisy should be called rookies. Kate has been writing and performing her music for several years while Daisy was a member of Foxy Shazam. As Lung, they released an EP last summer but now are ready to take the indie world by storm with their debut full length – Bottom Of The Barrel. The record is self-released and officially will be out this Saturday March 18th.
“Hypochondriac” is a great first taste from Lung as it captures their powerful energy and intensity while showcasing both member’s talents. The driving rhythm will have your foot tapping while Wakefield’s commanding vocals will not let you turn the volume dial down. Her voice definitely pushes the track and has similarities to a Kristin Hersh (Throwing Muses) or PJ Harvey.
Lung will be celebrating the release of Bottom Of The Barrel with a full tour (dates below) and a local album release party this Saturday, March 18th (Details HERE). Also, make sure to play “Hypochondriac” loud, seek the full length out from the band, go see them live if they tour your town and then be sure to share Lung with your friends – you won’t be sorry!
