Kylie V has annouced their new album Crash Test Plane which is out November 15 via Royal Mountain Records.
When it comes to navigating the path to adulthood, there’s no flight plan. You have to try things, make mistakes, and learn from them. As singer-songwriter Kylie Van Slyke – better known under their stage name Kylie V. – puts it when talking about their second album Crash Test Plane, “I’m 20 years old. I’ve watched so many things in my life happen to me that I thought were going to be the absolute end, and a week after each of those I’m like, ‘Oh my god, I’m fine.'” This kind of self-awareness may seem rare in such a young artist, but like Conor Oberst, Samia, and Christian Lee Hutson before them, Van Slyke’s version of indie folk pairs lived-in storytelling with an unmistakable knack for soul-baring.
Kylie V shares also their new single ‘Wish I Was In Bed’. Kylie on the track, “‘Wish I Was In Bed’ is a little bit of a love song to my friends and a little bit of a reminder to let myself have fun. I wrote this song in probably an hour or less while getting ready to go out; it all just kind of fell out onto a page in one piece. I was trying not to ruin a good time for myself with my own thoughts. Josh (Eastman) and I had a lot of fun putting this one together in the studio, but now that I think about it, it’s more painfully honest than fun lyrically, isn’t it…”
