Following the release of a 7" earlier this year (I Used To Draw/Wizard Of Loneliness, Signals Midwest returns with a standalone single set for Oct. 20 release via Lauren Records.
The new song is called "Tommy Took A Picture" and offers a nostalgic reflection of the band's 13 years thus far, often documented by photographer Tommy Calderon.
Vocalist Maxwell Stern, who has also released solo material recently, explains the song:
Our friend Tommy Calderon has been shooting photos of our band for over a decade now. I spent a lot of time over the course of 2020 going through the archives and soaking in nostalgia, so I ended up sifting through a lot of images he's made over the years. I wanted to capture the energy I saw in those photos – what I felt when we first started playing together, and every day held the potential for discovery.
