Buke and Tase have shared the title track of their upcoming album, Scholars, which will be out January 18th on Brassland. This is the triumphant return of the New York duo being their first album in almost six years.
Arone Dyer said of the track, “When I sing this, I picture a quintessential trouble child whose parents express a need for the control they know they don’t have. When I sing this, I picture being gaslit by a lover.When I sing this, I imagine myself bigger than I am, and growing, a crown of stars waits for me. When I sing this, my chest billows with a desire to believe that I will overcome my faults, even though the subtle judgment that I won’t by those I love compresses my spine, keeping me Earthbound. I extend this empathy to those whose truths aren’t yet recognized by contradictive social expectations.”
