In Our Headphones is made possible in part by Thorntail Hard Agave. Storefinder at drinkthorntail.com. From Independent Music Station, K-E-X-P, you're listening to In Our Headphones, a podcast about the songs that we just can't get enough of lately. This is Evie Stokes, and this week I'm talking with Lena from the Seattle band, Coral Grief. Coral Grief has been getting a ton of airplay on KexP recently. You have a new album out. Do you want to talk about that at all?

Just put out our debut record called Air Between Us. Yeah, y'all have been so kind playing it on the radio so much the past few weeks. I'm so happy to have it out in the world, but also kind of a sense of relief that it's not,

you know, looming this giant release coming up. So yeah, I'm feeling super grateful to everyone for

listening. And are you going to tour soon? Or you just did a tour? Yes, we just toured down the

West Coast and then we'll be heading out kind of doing more of a full U.S. tour to the East Coast, down to Atlanta in places like New Orleans, which I'm really excited about.

And that'll be coming up in October and November.

Cool. Well, you brought a new song that you're going to share. We can't wait to hear it. What you got?

This is from a band that I've been super excited about the past few years.

And then I saw this song and was like,

oh my gosh, it's made for me. But that's actually kind of what the song does. It's like a super

curious, a little bit of a sneaky, understated song on the record. But I think that it really

highlights each instrument super well. And it draws on the call and response between

the guitar and the vocalist in super, super interesting ways. And they're, I don't know, the band,

they do a lot with a little bit. They're just a three piece, and my band's also a three piece,

so I always like to see how other bands kind of orchestrate, you know, finding that balance between,

okay, how do we make this sound full, but also stripped down and highlighting what each

instrument does. And I think that they do that incredibly well throughout the whole record,
