Portland band foamboy releases a new stand-alone single, ‘Book and a Cold,’ a dance pop tune lamenting a failed relationship. This single comes on the heels of two other recently released tracks, ‘Summering’ and ‘Phone.’

The band gives some background on the song: “This song about an anticlimactic love affair was revived from the archives. I originally produced it as a slow/sleepy beat with just the chorus lyrics “all I got from you was a book and a cold/I’m tired of maybes to soften the blow.” Five years later, Wil turned it into a big glittery disco song, which was great, but it meant I had to go back and write some verses. As someone who normally starts and finishes the lyrics of a song within a few days, it was an interesting challenge to complete something I had started so long ago.”
