Paralysis through indecision; waiting around for a change to come, and being unwilling \u2013 or unable \u2013 to make that change yourself. Nights spent staring into the sky, waiting for an answer that will never arrive. Realizing your own faults and that there is no overcoming them. The song\u2019s lyrics are poignant and heartfelt, with a message that speaks to the human experience of loss and longing.\u00a0<strong>Tragicomics<\/strong>\u00a0has been making music for years, and their latest single is a testament to their continued growth and evolution as artists.\u00a0Fans of alt-country will not want to miss this latest release from Tragicomics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tragicomics<\/strong>&nbsp;are an alt-country collective from the northwest of the UK, and self-professed purveyors of sharply crafted pop songs, sweeping melancholy, and doomed romanticism. Now the four-piece return with brand new single&nbsp;<strong>\u2018Stranger Things\u2019<\/strong>, an uplifting country-infused offering that flaunts a swinging vocal line and introspective lyrics alongside a sonically rich soundscape. The track was recorded at&nbsp;<strong>Pinhole Studio<\/strong>, where the band used some very old and well-loved gear \u2013 including an original 60s tape delay and a vintage Leslie speaker \u2013 to capture some of the old-time country feel of the tune. It was mixed by&nbsp;<strong>Adam Gorman<\/strong>&nbsp;and mastered by&nbsp;<strong>Frank Arkwright<\/strong>&nbsp;(The Smiths, New Order, Joy Division, Scott Walker) at&nbsp;<strong>Abbey Road<\/strong>, and features&nbsp;<strong>Matt O\u2019Brien<\/strong>&nbsp;on bass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Stranger Things\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/4tQ9stXVXabJJf0euHlWvK?utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow&nbsp;<strong>Tragicomics&nbsp;<\/strong>on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/tragicomicswho\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>&nbsp; \/&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/tragicomics_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>&nbsp; \/&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tragicomicswho\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>&nbsp; \/&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/6qSVDNdpy6YW9kbm3gdf5C?si=1HjK_0YIQfO-Ugjx7Cv_cw&amp;nd=1\">Spotify<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tragicomics, the alt-country outfit from the northwest, is back with a new single titled\u00a0\u201cStranger Things\u201d.\u00a0The song is an uplifting country-infused offering that flaunts a swinging<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":191,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-discover"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=190"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":192,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190\/revisions\/192"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/191"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitesmusic.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
