Sex Week Release 'Life Is A Circle' Single and Video
Richard Orofino and Pearl Amanda Dickson perform at Bowery Ballroom while touring with Cardinals.
New York duo Sex Week (Richard Orofino and Pearl Amanda Dickson) have released 'Life Is A Circle,' a new single and first taste of new music since their recent tours with Mitski and fers. The track arrives alongside a video directed by the band themselves.
'Life is a Circle' feels like the cornerstone of our musical palette,' says Dickson. It's a song that pulls back the veneer of the band and exposes the difficulty of creating alongside a romantic partner. The track starts as a fiddle and harmonica-led campfire singalong before spinning out into wilder territory, including a quantized horse sample Dickson found while playing around with Logic. 'It was cathartic to make. Just adding these little wooden recorders, accordions and 808s, just not caring about anything other than what we wanted to hear,' adds Orofino.
Sex Week, currently on tour supporting Cardinals this fall, played a hometown show in New York City at Bowery Ballroom. The band is also set to perform at Pitchfork Festival Paris, Iceland Airwaves, and a London headline show in November.
