Soccer Mommy, the musical project of beloved Nashville songwriter and musician Sophie Allison, recently announced her staggering new album Evergreen.
She has highlighted the more organic production of this record with the breathtaking, acoustic-forward ‘Lost,’ and ‘M,’ and today she shares a new side of the record with ‘Driver.’
A classic, catchy-as-hell Soccer Mommy rocker, ‘Driver’ is a testament to Allison’s spaciness and indecision; it’s a cheeky song about someone who is willing to deal with those flaws, to love you in spite of them. Listen to the song now here .
Soccer Mommy also announces a massive, four-month North American, UK and European tour in support of Evergreen today. In addition to her forthcoming performance at NYC and DC’s All Things Go later this month and Austin’s Levitation Festival in November, Soccer Mommy will bring the new album on the road from January through the end of May. Tickets go on-sale Friday 13th September at 10am locally – see below to find a show near you, and get your tickets HERE.
Allison began her career as a teenager, sharing music on Bandcamp in near-demo form. Recent years have found her enjoying synthesizers and experimental production, thanks to endless studio resources newly at her fingertips. But when Allison wrote the songs for Evergreen, she knew they called for a different touch. Songwriting has always been Allison’s way to sort through life and ground herself, so – as she crafted this album in the wake of a profound and personal loss – it felt important to keep these songs raw and relatable, unvarnished and honest. By opting for more organic production and shining a spotlight on her songwriting, Allison did just that. The result is Evergreen, a sonic return to Soccer Mommy’s roots, but recast on a cinematic scale with the help of acoustic guitars, lush strings and flutes. Nothing overindulgent, everything real.
Evergreen was made by Allison in Atlanta’s Maze Studios with producer Ben H. Allen III (Deerhunter, Animal Collective, Youth Lagoon, Belle and Sebastian), and will be released on October 25th via Loma Vista Recordings.
