Following her 2020 debut and her offbeat but graceful When it Comes (2022), Dana Gavanski returns on April 5th with Late Slap. Having previewed her latest offering at a sold-out London headline show, it’s fair to say that her newfound confidence and energy are more than just words.
For her latest single and video, Ears Were Growing, she channels Talking Heads, throwing in an 80s retro video for good measure. All brilliantly executed as we’ve come to expect from Gavanski.
‘Ears Were Growing’ is an escapists dream that spirals back to the reality of being stuck on the same old sofa with the same old thoughts,” says Dana. “Thoughts that, though depressive and negative, have taken on a twisted but comforting companionship, a kind of Stockholm syndrome. It’s what happens when I try to make a Talking Heads-esque track.”
