Brooklyn’s Momma, led by dual vocalists/guitarists Etta Friedman and Allegra Weingarten, today share “Lucky”, the latest shimmering single from their much-anticipated new album Household Name due out on July 1st. The new single follows a busy couple of months for the band that has seen them tour with Wet Leg in the US and perform their first headlining shows in the UK, including a sold-out show at The Windmill in London, and fill a string of packed rooms across Brighton for The Great Escape.
“Lucky” is out now alongside a video directed by Emma Penrose & Zack Shorrosh, Friedman, who helms lead vocals on “Lucky,” explains, “I wrote it after my significant other and I had to spend an unknown amount of time apart from each other on opposite sides of the country. I wanted it to feel anthemic, like a sappy and sentimental love song, but I still wanted to speak on how exciting it feels to know you found true treasure with someone you are in love with.”
“We didn’t want to get too cheesy and literal so Etta suggested some ideas from the Green Day ‘Walking Contradiction’ video as well as the fun and etherealness of certain Beabadoobee videos,” explains director Penrose. “In the end, we feel like the video displays how much fun it was to film – everyone involved was a friend of either Zack & Emma’s or Etta & Allegra’s, so the project feels very personal and lighthearted.”
