New York City’s Whisper Doll share ‘So Sweet’, the latest preview of their upcoming album Lucky Clover, out 2 October via Take Care Records.
‘So Sweet’ is a lullaby balanced by forgiveness and nostalgia. Written in the aftermath of a difficult recovery from surgery, bandleader Fiona Tagami found herself returning to her childhood home, where familiar surroundings and reconnecting with someone from her past brought much-needed comfort and peace.
“I wrote this song right after spending a week straight in the hospital after complications with a surgery. Once I got out of the bland, grey room, everything seemed brighter and sweeter. I wrote this on the porch of my childhood home in Atlanta. Around then, I ran into someone from high school I had a complicated past with. We hadn’t talked since he’d graduated, and we agreed to catch up. We walked down the train tracks surrounded by green trees tucked away from the city. I was reminded why we got along so well, despite everything. I felt like he lived in my same reality. Forgiveness, sweetness. I felt very at peace.”
