LOUD WOMEN is delighted to premiere today ‘Girl I Know’, the lush debut single from French London-based outfit Huarinami, ahead of its general release on Monday. The band tell us:

“Girl I Know is a soft song that still has a large range of dynamics and doesn’t feel ‘pliable’ but rather mesmerising. It’s about love, flirts and charming dynamics between two people, it feels light and easy, we’re so thrilled it’s how we’re introducing ourselves to the world”. 

The release is a dreamy blend of punk energy and psychedelic indie grooves. Frontwoman Pauline Janier delivers smooth, honeyed vocals over swirling guitars, with a flute adding a hazy, otherworldly touch.

Janier, already known for her Cody Pepper solo project, also designed the artwork for the release—because why stop at just making great music? A solid first release from a band that’s bringing something fresh to the table. Keep an eye on these lot. 🔥
