Minnesota singer and Secret Song's alum Morly shared a new track today in anticipation of the Something More Holy EP, her sophomore release. Like Wet and Låpsley, Morly fuses singer/songwriter tropes—the lone voice, plaintive melodies—with slinky, up-to-date pop production. I'm gone, you know I'm gone, she sings, and the supportive beat signals agreement by starting to chatter in double-time.
"'Plucky' is a song about courage," Morly explains in an email to The FADER. "And not taking things too seriously. It's a rare one where the groove came first."
