HAND HABITS CLEAN AIR

The release of Hand Habits' new album Fun House is just around the corner and 'Clean Air' is the cathartic final single. Sonically anchored by an undulating acoustic guitar part, live drums add pace as ethereal backing vocals and eventually strings add a cinematic quality to the track. Succumbing to the reality that there are so many things that we can't control, Hand Habits explains: "When writing songs for Fun House, I had become exhausted and bored by the idea of writing more songs out of blame, spite, or anger. 'Clean Air' is about finding clarity, leaning into acceptance, and acknowledging someone else's experience as truth without blame or resentment, even when it differs from our own." Check out 'Clean Air' as we anticipate the arrival of Fun House. -Holly Mullineaux
