Blissful, Down-tempo Beats Fill Hovvdy’s New Video For “Petals”

Local favorites, Hovvdy, are the slacker music aficionados whose music embodies Austin’s soul. Gearing up for its Feburary 5th release, Cranberry, is Hovvdy’s sophomore album that is being released on Double Double Whammy Records. Having described their own music as Pillowcore, Charlie and Will are choose to dive into a solipsistic dream, that shimmers with shoegaze, and simmers with Sonic Youth. "Petals" is a suburban love letter, chock full of neighborhood imagery, family bonds, and everyday beauty. The music video is a near carbon copy of every 90’s MTV alternative rock video that which portrays the group jamming in their seemingly childhood home. While the over-saturation of indie music in Austin continues, Hovvdy differentiates their music by savoring the moment rather than rushing to the chorus. Pre-order, Cranberry, now available here: https://hovvdy.bandcamp.com
