Porch Light Release Screamo Anthem “Under” Ahead of North American Tour
Fresh off their Lollapalooza and Hinterland festival debut, the buzz around Minneapolis indie band Porch Light continues as they share a new, heavier, and angsty single, “Under”.
Of the new song, singer Jackie Uhas shares about the process: “Full transparency, we just really wanted to make a face-melting song I could scream on. The guys came to my parents’ house for a writing session and began jamming.” You can stream the new single HERE!
Uhas explains,“‘Under’” was born, with the only parts I had written at the time being the verses. It took some marinating, but a few months later at practice, I just started yelling “WAKE ME UP” over the chorus. When we went to record the album, I made it a point that these vocals would be the last thing I recorded over our 10-day session. I’m not trained to yell without damaging my voice, and I didn't want to hold back; I also thought it would be fitting if I was drunk. Our last night, Timberwolves game on, a few beers and a Jameson shot deep, I stumbled to the bathroom and wrote the bridge sitting on the toilet. 5 minutes later I recorded vocals, our producer Caleb having not heard my parts yet. Safe to say, nobody knew what to expect.”
