London singer-songwriter Murkage Dave has shared a new song featuring Caroline Polachek. It’s called “Awful Things,” and it arrives tonight with another track by Dave, “Please Don’t Move to London It’s a Trap.” Listen to both below. Dave said of the latter song in a statement:
“I find that people either paint London as some kind of warzone, like there’s missiles going off every minute, or they want to airbrush out all the crud on some Hugh Grant shit like everyone is just sitting around drinking organic wine in Michelin star restaurants. I’d rather just say it as it is, it may not be as pretty a picture or maybe it doesn’t fit the stereotype that some might like to consume but I feel like I’ve gotten closer to the truth, which is all I know how to do.”
Polachek recently joined Charli XCX and Christine and the Queens on the new single “New Shapes.” Polachek released Pang in 2019; read “How Old Disney Movies, ‘Magic: The Gathering,’ and PC Music Influenced Caroline Polachek’s Pang.”
