Folk-rock band Dawes has shared their latest single “Everything is Permanent” from their upcoming album MISADVENTURES OF DOOMSCROLLER. The single is now available via Rounder Records at all DSPs and streaming services. The new single includes an official live performance music video directed by Caitlin Gerard at Hollywood, CA’s historic EastWest Studios.

Fans get to see the band–brothers Taylor Dawes and Griffin Goldsmith and Wylie Gerber– in their element. The 8-minute music video becomes a great groove session with an instrumental interlude. The song is rhythmic and easy to listen to. Regarding the new single, singer and guitarist Taylor Goldsmith says, “This is a song (about how everything about us is tracked, documented, recorded, filed, mined, bought, sold, etc. etc. on some level) that is wrapped around a molten core of a breakdown/freakout/majorminorinterweave that is probably the moment I’m most proud of on the whole record. “After showing you the blood and guts, we gently sew the song back together again and end with what could be the tagline for all of social media and the screen-life-culture that we subscribe to these days to varying degrees: ‘Did you really need to cry? Or be seen crying?’” Take a look and listen. 

While preparing for their album release, the group will also headline shows, festival performances, a summer tour with The Head and The Heart and a co-headlining tour with the Canadian artist Bahamas. “An Evening with Dawes and Bahamas” will consist of two unique live sets that begin September 7 in Knoxville, TN.
