Since forming in 2014 The Bedside Morale are a band that bonded over their shared love of all kinds of music, and were unafraid to bring new elements into their own writing, developing into a very close-knit unit
Ahead of their soon to be released EP comes their latest single Yours Sincerely, is a track that exudes an impossible amount of emotion right from the opening note.
Discussing the singe, Yours Sincerely
, Kazer explains
Lyrically - Yours Sincerely - was a really tough song to write. Kynan had come in with the song framework and that beautiful bass line. It felt sad and quiet to me, dejected I guess, and I knew what I wanted to write about I just had no idea how to do it. I think like a lot of people I dealt with the trauma I had faced by detaching myself from it. I stood in the rafters so to speak. I could say the words and tell people what happened but in some way I was pretending that wasn't me.
But that's not what felt right for this song. I wanted the song to be in conversation with that person, a chance, albeit not face to face, to say all the things I never knew enough to.
So I had to force myself to really feel it. I tried to not shy away from putting it to paper, or wrap it up in clever wordplay, which was hard because it meant accepting the reality of it and how little control I had. There are still some lines in this song that, if I spend too long focussing on, utterly break me. So that's Yours Sincerely. A song about trying to love, in spite of all the turmoil.
Their upcoming debut EP Still Life
is set for release on July 26th 2024.
The single Yours Sincerely is available through all streaming platforms.
