WILLIE J HEALEY has announced the release date of his second album ‘Twin Heavy’ as well as unveiling its lead cut ‘True Stereo’. Signed to Felix White’s essential indie hub YALA! Records, the album will arrive on 7th August.

The consistent, always-evolving songwriter finds a happy medium between rock and pop on the new single, adding further nuances to his whimsical, scuzzy bedroom pop sound. With boisterous waves of baritone guitar coming together with endearing melodies and Healey’s timeless vocals in exquisite fashion, it’s a refreshing and punchy slice of pumped up pop that has us eagerly anticipating the full-length album.

“‘True Stereo’ comes from a good place,” he says. “I wrote it while trying out my friend Casper’s baritone guitar. I was like ‘damn this sounds funky!’ I then transferred that tuning to a regular six string, which gave it a really warped sludgy sound. That baritone inspired the whole idea”.

Check out the track below and its brand new video which features Healey playing two different parts.
