Acoustic punk duo Girlpool have shared a track from the forthcoming album “Cherry Picking”, a relationship lament, and the latest single from the band’s much anticipated debut album, “Before The World Was Big”. Taken from Girlpool’s debut album, Out 1st June on Wichita Recordings.
Girlpool is a Philadelphia based two piece made up of Cleo Tucker (Guitar) and Harmony Tividad (Bass). The two met at Los Angeles DIY venue the Smell and quickly grew very close. Their sound is raw, comprised only of a guitar, bass and vocal harmonies. Cleo and Harmony use this stripped-down instrumentation to accentuate their vulnerable and powerful lyrics. After releasing their self-titled EP, Girlpool relocated to Philadelphia at the end of 2014 looking for change of pace and scenery. There they recorded their debut LP, ‘Before The World Was Big’, with Kyle Gilbride (of Swearin’). ‘Before The World Was Big’ explores the concepts of growth, friendship, and the interaction between identity and environment. The introspective-punk duo captures growing pains and existential quandaries with a honest and true intention. think the sparseness of Young Marble Giants, mixed with the attitude of Bikini Kill and the hooks of the Marine Girls.
