SHAED Releases New Single 'Maybe I Don't Know How' Ahead of New Album
by Josh Sharpe - May 17, 2024


“Maybe I Don’t Know How” follows “Everybody Knows I’m High” and “Rocket In The Sky” as the third single from Spinning Out. The band, who worked on the track with Mike Del Rio, had the following to say about its creation and evolution: “We were in a circle, vibing out so hard, just saying random things and creating this story of this person who just did not know how to cut the rope with someone in their life. It was maybe a darker relationship energy: “If love’s a drug I’m never high enough.” It’s someone who’s maybe too drawn in, too obsessed.” Listen to the single!
