New Music: Low Girl – White Gown

A new album and a headline tour – it sure is a busy time for Low Girl and their brand of thoughtful, occasionally spiky indie music.

White Gown, like much of the band’s new album – Is It Too Late To Freak Out? – revolves around the intimate and vibrant vocal style of Sarah Cosgrove. She can switch from vulnerable to cold in an instant and, along with her bandmates, creates a shifting pattern of sounds that sometimes veer away from classic indie but never lose touch with each other or the vocals. It’s stunning, stirring music with a lot to say.

“The experience of starting a relationship at the start of your twenties, reaching all the expected milestones of moving in together, engagement, and then breaking up in your late twenties, is quite disorienting,” says vocalist Cosgrove about White Gown.

“I know I’m certainly not alone in that sequence of events, but I felt really inspired to write about the chaos that followed as I tried to figure myself out again. The canvas for this track was provided by [band members] Tom and Bradley in the form of the opening riff.”

“It was one of those songs where once we started jamming it out, the whole thing came together with surprising speed. The end result is something we are so excited about and proud of, and it feels like the energetic crux of the album.”

Is It Too Late To Freak Out? is out now and is followed by an eight-date tour towards the end of November. The album is available on vinyl and is streaming on SoundCloud, YouTube Music, and Spotify.
