“Buckle Up Baby” by Marika Christine

“The car keeps driving but my soul is far behind
Buckle up baby, we will make it out alright”

Marika Christine—who also plays with Spacemoth, Secret Secret, and Medscool—has a new album coming out this spring, and the first single is a lovely little thing. Made up of walking piano, simple strumming, and gorgeous harmonies, “Buckle Up Baby” says goodbye to yesterday’s heartache in vintage technicolor, and looks to the future with a mantra of a chorus that knows tomorrow will be better. The upcoming album Soft Like an Apricot is due out on Seattle’s Ghost Mountain Records in early May.

See Marika Christine perform tomorrow night with Mae Powell and Analog Dog at Bottom of the Hill as part of Noise Pop Fest.
