Lyrics...
The latest single “Tiny Dinosaur That Only I Can See,” blends the band’s signature sound with a more aggressive power pop vibe. The lyrics convey a deeper, personal message, paying tribute to singer Tanisha’s childhood friend, who tragically passed away at just 27. Tanisha reflects on how the lyrics help her cherish the “innocent and carefree” memories of their youth, contrasting sharply with the “seriousness” and “tragic reality” of the loss of her friend.
Production...
“Tiny Dinosaurs that Only I Can See” was produced by Andy Hawkins, who worked on the band’s previous track, “You’re in Mono.” The other songs on the album were crafted by the band themselves. Each track showcases a unique yet cohesive sound, with thoughtful structural arrangements and layering of instruments. The dynamic shifts from verse to chorus, helped by the variations in the drumming, keeping listeners engaged and eager to discover what unfolds next.
Summary...
Following the release of their single on October 4th, the band will embark on a nine-date tour across the UK, named the “Tiny Dinotour,” which will also include several additional shows in the Netherlands. After a busy couple of years, fans are eager to see what exciting developments lie ahead for the band.
