Independent Cleveland-based alternative electronic duo She 1 · Him 2 have released their second single of 2022, ‘Stuck Inside’. Featuring graphics by Steven Archer of ‘Stoneburner’ and ‘Ego Likeness’, the track’s theme is centred around the notion of negative thought patterns and adhering to them – becoming bad habits that drag us down. One’s true passage to freedom is figuring out how to shatter such toxic routines and just… let go.
The igniting duo combines darkwave rocker and former Lestat front-man, Evan Nave with Cassie Bishop of Shy Moon. Channelling the likes of Ladytron, Giorgio Moroder, and Big Data, She 1 · Him 2 has captured the attention of Post-Punk.com, ReGen Magazine, and Darker Side of Music. Collaborating with Grammy Award Winning Producer Michael Seifert (Tori Amos, and Paul Simon), ‘Stuck Inside’ awakes an electronic sound unlike any of the curators’ past work. Relevant rhetoric around equality, equity, and fun has proven these topics to be fundamental in a post-pandemic world. This age has resulted in a long-distance approach when producing the track, utilizing an electronic sound unlike previous releases; ‘Split the Line’ and ‘Spoken Words to Light’.
She 1 · Him 2 are currently working on a full 4 song EP slated for 2023.
