Trummors – “Hey Babe”

I am thrilled to announce the debut single from Trummors’ upcoming album, 5, out April 12th via Ernest Jenning Record Co. Trummors are my very favorite duo, and this song hits especially close to home, reflecting on the rare nature of lifetime love. I haven’t yet had the pleasure of meeting Annie and Dave but parasocially, their bond is so beautiful and I’ve always admired their adventurous spirit and how they are surrounded and embracing of a loving community (evident by repeated session musicians across their incredible discography) but are such a simultaneously powerful self-sustaining unit- for years I’ve enjoyed their portraits of each other in front of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, seen in this video as well.

“Hey Babe” sounds like classic Trummors – their voices a perfect match for one another, Dan Horne’s lingering pedal steel adorning the piece like chapparal, just an ambling walk through life together.

“Hey Babe” was inspired my thoughts on mortality and marriage and subsequently, the importance of having a beautiful partner in your life—one you trust to walk hand in hand with—it’s a rare and wonderful thing to find that kind of relationship, and when you do find it, hold on to it with care, be it romantic, friendly, or familial; the song is a bit of an homage to those most important bonds we form during our lives.”
