Today NO SWOON officially release their sophomore album called Take Your Time. The album is an honest lyrical take on the pandemic with keyboards and synthesizers driving its sound. The NYC duo Tasha Abbott & Zack Nestel-Patt will be performing in Los Angeles come May.
Abbott says, “These are some of the most personal songs we’ve written yet. Like most people during the pandemic, we were forced to shut everything down and had so much time to think and reflect on what was going on, which eventually led to reflecting about our life in general and how we got to where we are. And while we were angry, we were mostly sad and confused, and wanted to quiet things down. We wanted something softer, something with more comfort. There’s a lot of self reflection on this record- about things we would have done differently, or things we wished we had done; A lot of thoughts about personal hurdles, depression, and family. But this record is mostly about self acceptance. We have all needed comfort and love during the last few years – this album is really just a hug for our inner child – with a little weirdness, naturally.”
