sgl - now, now

Now, Now made their return in 2017 with the single SGL, which marked a fresh chapter for the indie-rock duo as they debuted a new, polished, pop-infected sound. Cacie Dalager and Brad Hale brought a newfound energy to their work, signaling a shift from the melancholic tone of their old sound to a brighter, yet no less heartfelt, pallet.

The production on SGL is warm, blending guitars with driving percussions and airy, layer vocals. It’s an anthem of longing, with lyrics that resonate with those who have been in love with someone who’s out of reach. The track captures the rush of infatuation with the delicate vulnerability that comes with it. There’s a tension that builds between the upbeat sound and the tender, heartfelt lyrics, something that makes you feel alive with anticipation.

For fans of dreamy alt-pop with emotional depth, SGL is a standout. It’s a perfect track for late-night drives, something to sing your heart out to, and moments when your heart feels as if it’s finally ready to unfold.
