Laveda

New York City-based duo Laveda share new single F*** the latest glimpse to their forthcoming second album ‘A Place We Grew Up In’ due spring 2023 via Papercup Music.

With dreamy shoegaze rhythms with 90s-tinged guitars and distant drums, the latest offering builds gradually to its conclusion like a college coming-of-age story that sees a disillusioned protagonist defeat their adversaries to come out on top.

Discussing the latest single vocalist Ali Genevich explains: “By my second year of college, I knew I wanted to write, record and perform music all the time. I had a heavy load of requirements for my music degree, so it felt like school was just this big delay to actually starting the career I envisioned. By my fourth year I was completely checked out.
“College felt like high school part two to me. I thought most people would have grown out of the desire to be in cliques and look up to whoever was popular by age 19, but I realised that some people never do. I watched a few friends go through some toxic relationships. It was a perfect breeding ground for sh**ty dudes to prey on naive girls. I wished I could make all the bad people disappear so they couldn’t drag down the ones I cared about with them.”
