NEW VIDEO: THE DARTS "POUR ANOTHER"
It's here! The first single from The Darts' album Boomerang (2024 Alternative Tentacles Records) may seem, at first glance, like a keg party. But actually singer Nicole Laurenne wrote it while she was giving up alcohol, as a reminder to herself about all the things we tell ourselves as we pour another - and a reminder that sometimes maybe we should listen to our mothers.
Nicole Laurenne - songwriting, lead vocals, organ
Meliza Jackson - guitars
Christina Nunez - bass, backing vocals
Mary Rose Gonzales - drums, percussion
Audio production by Mark Rains, Station House Studio for Alternative Tentacles Records. Mastering by Anne-Marie Suernam. Video production by Matt Eskew, Generation X-Ray. Filmed at Slim's Last Chance (Seattle WA), Freakout Fest 2023 (Seattle WA), and The Paramount (Los Angeles).

V1 get me on the next plane
so I can go in circles
way above the tree line
away from all the jerk-offs
i know I drink the kool-aid
quote too many movies
force the definitions
every swallow redefines me
C pour another
pour another
you are not my mother
pour another
V2 gonna need a rocket
to blast through all the bullshit
surrounds us like a blanket
smothers all the thinking
i weaken to the admen
sing with all the jingles
walk florescent aisles
selecting my addictions
B need a little help in the afternoon
a little help walking into the room
gotta calm the anxiety
makes me think you listen to me
better in a daze
better in a haze
with something in my hand
i don’t get phased
makes them pretty
makes them funny
makes them sexy
makes them love me
