For ‘Dear Miss Holloway,’ Easy Life and Kevin Abstract have released a video. ‘MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…,’ easy life’s latest album, is released August 12 on Geffen Records.
The official music video for easy life’s latest hit, “DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY,” featuring Kevin Abstract, has been released. William Child directed the captivating claymation video (Young Thug, Drake, 100 Gecs). On Apple Music’s New Music Daily, Zane Lowe played the song for the first time.
The band also announced that their new album MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE… would be released on August 12 through Geffen Records. The project’s first track, “BEESWAX,” was released recently as a teaser and is now available for pre-order. This is the follow-up to the band’s critically acclaimed debut album, life’s a beach.
“DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY” is a melancholy, woozyly West Coast hymn to a love that wasn’t meant to be (Murray composed it about a fleeting crush on a teacher: “maybe in another life, we may try to roll the dice, and get it right'”).
Murray and Kevin met in Los Angeles and began playing each other their new songs after first connecting via DM. Abstract was requested to cut a verse right then and there, resulting in a song that became “the cornerstone of the second easy life album,” as Murray puts it.
“Kevin raps about expectations vs. reality, decision, and regret,” he continues. Thematically, ‘DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY’ opened up a whole new universe for us as a band, and the desire to create a world that was better than the one we were living in at the time.”
The band just finished their North American Spring headlining tour, which included stops in New York, Philadelphia, Washington, DC, Boston, Montreal, Toronto, Chicago, Denver, Seattle, Vancouver, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, among other cities. The band will next embark on a hectic summer of festivals, including Glastonbury (where they have been scheduled to perform on the renowned Pyramid Stage), Radio 1’s Big Weekend, TRNSMT, and Summersonic in Japan.
