Scowl released a new song today, "Opening Night," one of 5 songs on an upcoming EP. The band will release Psychic Dance Routine on April 7 via Flatspot Records.

The Santa Cruz, CA band released How Flowers Frow in late 2021, drawing critical attention since. The band is on tour now, including a stop at Coachella.

Speaking of the new single, Kat says:

“Opening Night’ is a song I’m particularly excited about because I really worked on this song’s structure with the boys in the band. I felt inspired by early 2000’s indie rock songs written by bands like The Strokes and Vampire Weekend.

Lyrically this song takes a pretty literal stab at my experience of feeling jolted from stage to van, and back again, every single night. I also had experiences on tour where I was seeing faces in the crowd that belonged to people from my past, and it was pretty shocking.
