Wellington's Welcomer are pleased to release Easter Traffic.
Listen Here
On the back of their last single The Summit finding a place in the Student Radio Network Top 10 of 2023, and their self-titled debut receiving a nomination for favourite EP, Welcomer release new song Easter Traffic. Something of a home-recorded palate cleanser, it is released between release cycles.
The song is a steady stripped back number that sees lead songwriter, Miles Sutton, exploring the lower end of his range. It features atmospheric omnichord drones by Asher Lee (skymning, Bankrupt Records) and vocal harmonies by Shannen Georgia Petersen (Sports Dreams, Fruit Juice Parade).
The lyrics stand bare as a catalogue of endings - '...like a row of shrines rusting on the timeline'. The search for an uplift is in the song's second half where Sutton asks whether these scenes of emptiness can be fertile grounds for renewal - 'does it help to help it clean? see the riverbed/ the silver tree'.
A perfect soundtrack to a year winding down, Easter Traffic is out 24 November.
