Today, Young Guv reveals new single, “Caught Lookin’“ from forthcoming album GUV II, out on Run For Cover October 25. With guest vocals from Aurora Shields, the track dives into II‘s more new wave / sophisticated pop side. Young Guv notes, “Although this one may sound like an accusatory duet between two lovers, it’s actually about how corporations control and own our attention through the mining of our data via smart phones.”
Just off the heels of Young Guv‘s acclaimed album GUV I, released late this summer, GUV II serves as a sequel collection of profoundly poignant and infectious pop tunes with choruses you’ll never forget and lyrics whose dry wit and understated acuity will knock you flat. Young Guv also just confirmed a run of dates with Vivian Girls including performances in NYC, Philadelphia, Boston and two nights in Chicago. See below for a full list of dates.
