Exclusive track premiere of ‘Coulda Made Out’ by Kelsey Magnuson, taken from ‘Don’t Budge’, out November 2nd via Earth Libraries.

To celebrate the upcoming record, Kelsey Magnuson shares a music video for its final single, ‘Coulda Made Out,’ an angsty, lonely-in-love anthem on which Kelsey bares her soul. It additionally comes alongside an accompanying music video.

The track itself plays on the conversations that stay up in your head, tumbling nimbly back and forth between two chords as Robin Caromosino’s bass ties everything together. “Coulda made out with you all night/ But I guess I could settle for a high five/ Get a grip girl you’re not that cool/ Come on Kels obsess about something else,” she sings, a tight self-harmony chasing every word. And when she insists she should just laugh all this self-doubt away, the forced melodic laughter sinks in like an all-too familiar knife.

‘Don’t Budge’ is out today via all DSPs. Stay tuned for more from Kelsey Magnuson, coming soon.

With her band, Kelsey Magnuson creates lyric-heavy songs with catchy licks that convey her feelings on making out, growing out of your twenties, and sports as a metaphor for polyamory. Throughout her debut LP, Magnuson draws inspiration from other femme rock musicians such as Julie Doiron, Haley Heynderickx, and Hannah Mohan (And the Kids).
