Indiana indie/alt/dreampop Wishy have aired their new single “Spinning”, alongside an accompanying video.
The track features on their upcoming 5-song EP, Paradise, due to be released on December 15th via Winspear. Pre-order your copy here.
Throughout Paradise, the band laments on American loneliness and idealism as it relates to our everyday lives. Across the EP’s five tracks, Nina Pitchkites and Kevin Krauter trade bittersweet reflections on love and self actualization over vast, scrappy guitar chords. The whole thing feels equally indebted to early aughts alt-rock and ‘90s jangle pop.
On Spinning, the band’s Nina lends her knack for introspective lyricism and layered vocals on uplifting, The Sundays-inspired track.
Watch the Reed Brown-directed video below.

Wishy “Spinning” Lyrics:
I’m starting to feel like it’s not just me anymore
I say and do the things that I’m supposed to
So where did I go wrong
And needed me for so long
But I didn’t know me then
I don’t know me now
Spinning around on the kitchen floor
I didn’t think I could dance anymore
Lately it’s been about me
Wake up to the sound of people talking over you
Up to the sound of people
Not saying much, can’t hear it anyway
Can’t hear it anyway
I want somebody to wish me sweet dreams
I’ll be counting my blessings when you make my world spin
Honey keep talkin I’m listenin ‘cus
I didn’t know me then
I don’t know me now
Spinning around on the kitchen floor
I don’t know what I’m dancing for
Honey it’s been about me
Driving through (Driving through)
This blizzard and I’m talking to myself
Running through (Running through)
My mind I know I’ve put me on a shelf
Things may come and things may go
I didn’t know me then
I don’t know me now
Spinning around on the kitchen floor
I don’t know what I’m dancing for
Honey it’s been about me
