Girlpool the group established by union two, invite to collaborate

FOR THE REALIZATION OF ELECTRONIC SOUND IN HIS ‘VERGUNG’ ALBUM, FREUND-DUETO HIRED A RECORD MANUFACTURER IN HIS INTEREST PRACTICE

Over the eight years of the Los Angeles-based Girlpool band, this project has taken friends Avery Tucker and Harmony Tividad from their teenage years to adulthood and the furthest reaches of genre and sound. Free, folk-inspired songs on the duo’s 2015 debut album. Before the world got big, they blended in with beautiful pop melodies and indie rock riffs as they continued to mature and experiment. Four years later, reflective writing on the melancholic collection. What Chaos Is Imaginary reveals the two’s sensitive and insightful views on growth and the world around them.

With the big release of their fourth Forgiveness LP, Girlpool is more in tune with themselves and each other. A synchronicity that allows them to push their music in any direction.

The album, a gritty collection of tunes that tints strict songwriting in a satisfying poop style, was release in January, but the bone was on long before then. “Many of these songs have been written over the years,” explains Tucker, although the overall concept isn’t clear. As a sign of their deep and close friendship. She and Tividad appeared on Zoom wearing the same bright yellow Girlpool T-shirt, without consciously matching their outfits.

Work on the album began shortly after the release of its 2019 predecessor. A process that started with evaluating the collected material and organizing ideas into detailed lists; They entered the demo phase later that year. This need for organization stems from the duo’s unique shared practice. As they did for Chaos before him, Tucker and Tividad often wrote separately for Forgiveness. Rather than waiting until they can see each other to learn the concept, each member starts writing for inspiration, often alone at home. “We both write music from a very emotional place and don’t like it; let’s write this timeless song,” Tividad said. “So I feel like we’re writing separately; it’s usually because we’re both so move to write.”
