Toronto’s poolblood has shared new single ‘twinkie’.
Out now, the track is released on Next Door Records, an imprint who have shared music from The Weather Station, Ada Lea, and more.
A high pedigree, then, and Toronto native poolblood certainly manages to maintain this stellar quality.
New single ‘twinkie’ is a gorgeous listen, with its wistful, hazy, summer-fresh feel aligned to a real intimacy in the sound.
Produced by Shamir – who also plays guitar and drums on the track – it’s an engaging slice of bedroom pop with an expansive palette.
poolblood comments: “‘twinkie’ is a song I wrote about the tenderness of time, time as a source of love, and the way time is the ultimate parent. Starting over is as sweet as a golden sponge cake.”
Emma Cosgrove directs the video, and it’s nostalgic, scrapbook feel perfectly matched the songwriting. poolblood adds: “The song is about starting over, so it was great timing to have Emma and I shoot the video while the flowers were blooming.”
Tune in now.
