Ahead of their upcoming album, Billboard Heart, indie rock band Deep Sea Diver offers another glimpse at their Sub Pop debut with “Let Me Go,” a match made in heaven featuring singer-songwriter Madison Cunningham. Slightly unnerving background vocals serve as background drones for a duet between Jessica Dobson of Deep Sea Diver and Cunningham that’s sure to be a high point for the album.
Aside from a very fuzzy guitar that gets its moments, the melodies from Dobson and Cunningham take the track to new heights. The pre-chorus, somewhat reminiscent of Muse’s “Supermassive Black Hole,” serves as the perfect segue into a cathartic chorus all about freedom and getting independence. Considering the results, it’s a surprise it took this long for them to work together.
“I’ve been wanting to collaborate with Madison for a long time, and I was over the moon when this song came [at] such an unexpected moment,” said Dobson. “We shot the music video with the same spirit, and as two LA natives who both love the city—we wanted to explore our hometown. Not knowing that it was two days before the LA fires, it has subsequently taken on a new meaning as a love letter to the city we both adore.”
See Deep Sea Diver on tour in LA at Teragram Ballroom on April 3.
