Following the release of ‘Lots of Nothing’ earlier this year, Spacey Jane have blessed our ears with a new single and video, titled ‘Lunchtime’. This one runs at a speedy tempo and zippy, textured guitar lines. We also love how the vocals of frontman Caleb Harper and bassist Peppa Lane bounce off each other – that’s gonna be a real moment in the live show.
But in classic Spaceys fashion, behind the infectious chorus and tone lies a deeper lyrical anguish.
“I wrote this song while experiencing severe hangover anxiety and feeling extremely hopeless,” frontman Caleb Harper explains. “I’m trying to explain how I feel like I’m just going through the motions with love, career, friends and family. I felt like everything was just happening because it had to and not because I cared about it.”
Take a spin below via the video, where a battered Caleb has a formal dinner with his bandmates. The clip was helmed by long-term collaborator Matt Sav and Juila Jacklin/Stella Donnelly videographer Nick McKinlay. It’s also worth noting the extra production polish on ‘Lunchtime’. The track was recorded in WA with Dave Parkin (who produced Spacey Jane’s debut album) but was mixed by Rich Costey, the Grammy-winning producer who’s sprinkled magic dust on everything from Phoebe Bridgers and The Killers to Blink-182, The Wombats and Kimbra.
