Holy Now - ‘Wake Up’ 7″ - Out Now!
Out of Gothenburg comes Holy Now, a project that grew out of a strong need to create music from the heart, and their debut 7” single out now via Beech Coma. With intimate melodies, yelling drums and sprawling choruses, the four piece lead you through their unique universe of timeless pop music in the vein of Alvvays, The Jesus And Mary Chain and Angel Olsen.
‘Wake Up’, a veritable pop dream of delirious vocals, riveting guitar solos and complex sensibilities, is the first taste of Julia Olander’s outstanding songwriting potential, backed by Ylva Holmdahl, Samuel Von Bahr and Hampus Eiderström Swahn. Tinged with melancholy throughout, the song also offers a light at the end of the tunnel. “It’s about wanting someone so much that everything gets messed up,” the band explain. “It’s about leaving, returning and letting go.”
‘Wake Up’ / ‘Please Love Me’ is available on 7” single now via Beech Coma - you can grab a copy here. The single is the fourth instalment of a bi-monthly subscription series from the label, part-funded by Arts Council England, that has so far seen releases from Bruising, Lou E and Posture.
