strongboi return with ‘think twice’, a wonderfully warm slice of psychedelic soft rock that feels tailor-made for long summer afternoons. Built around Alice Phoebe Lou and Ziv Yamin’s unmistakable musical chemistry, the duo’s first offering from their forthcoming second album is as comforting as it is quietly introspective, wrapping uncertainty in irresistibly sun-soaked melodies.

From the inviting glow of the organ to the subtle twang of pedal steel guitar, every element feels carefully placed to create an atmosphere that’s impossible not to sink into. Alice Phoebe Lou’s beautifully understated vocal remains the emotional anchor, while the pair’s harmonies drift together so effortlessly they feel almost transcendent. The result is a gentle, swaying groove that draws as much from ’70s soft rock and psych soul as it does modern indie.

Listening to ‘think twice’ feels like being transported back to childhood summers, winding along country roads with the windows rolled down on the way to the beach as the sun pours through the car windows. It’s nostalgic without trying too hard, comforting without becoming sentimental. Beneath its laid-back exterior sits a quiet vulnerability, but strongboi never let it weigh the song down. Instead, they remind us that sometimes the warmest songs are the ones that leave just a little room for uncertainty.
