We love ourselves the jubilant and radiant indie rock that The Moving Stills have put out over the last few years (check our previous features on them Here, Here, and Here) and their latest release, the indie pop blast “Best Friend,” is no different. It is the fourth single off their forthcoming album Wabi Sabi, due out November 24th. “Friend” captures the group’s whimsical creative spirit while beaming with the energy of their soul-warming smiles. “Best Friend” takes you to that cherished place in life where a friendship unburdens you just by being near and your adventures are effortlessly euphoric. Breezy vocals bring the cool, as shimmering synths warm you and guitar hooks dazzle and make you dance. Fans of Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, and MGMT will find lots on this track to love. Here is Tommy from The Moving Stills talking about their new track:
“’Best Friend’ is about feeling super positive in a relationship. It was a bit of a snapshot of life at the time. The chorus talks about the organic way certain things or relationships can come together, and when it’s so effortless and natural, it can feel so great. We wanted to make the production of the track feel playful yet also carry the emotion and themes of the song. Hopefully you can feel that when you listen to it and maybe even inspire you to seek those positive themes in life.”
