Yoni Wolf’s long-running WHY? project will release Oh Golly / Yes Lord on 30 October through Waterlines in indie rock.
Lead single and album closer 'In Spirit' introduces a record concerned with dating again, internet-mediated loneliness and middle age after a devastating relationship ends. Wolf recorded the album with producer Nate Mercereau and longtime collaborator Josiah Wolf, while Andrew Broder and Ryan Olson are among its additional contributors.
'In Spirit' is performed entirely by Wolf, and its modest lo-fi arrangement suits a song about connection. Nearly three decades into WHY?’s evolution, Wolf remains interested in turning private uncertainty into playful, unpredictable songs.
