Chastity Belt are tried-and-true legends of the Seattle scene. For more than a decade, the band has created scrappy, clever noise pop, frequently laced with homages to the Pacific Northwest. The act’s latest single, ‘I-90 Bridge’, presents reflective lyrics about growing older amidst local change rest atop a nostalgic, dreamy instrumental. The song is outwardly breezy, but underlined by pensive sincerity—quintessential Chastity Belt. It’s accompanied by a hazy video shot on drummer Gretchen Grimm’s camcorder, captured as they biked around Seattle at dusk – watch HERE. ‘I-90 Bridge’ arrives ahead of the album ‘Live Laugh Love’, which is out 29th March 2024 via Suicide Squeeze Records – Pre-order your copy HERE.
