Double Wish - Papers

Portrait of the Oakland-based indie-electronic duo Double Wish

Oakland-based duo Double Wish is the project of Adam Sabolick and Philippe Andre, who create, as per their own assessment, “dark sunshine pop.” Fine with me. There are clearly some wistful undertones in their new, beautifully dreamy single “Papers,” which also features bright, jangly guitars and warm, inviting vocals. Asked about the track, Adam says:

“This song is about intoxicating crutches and how hard it could be to take care of yourself, but finding the strength to do so. It’s about self-control slipping away, but snatching it full handed at the last second. It’s about overcoming failure with courage and humility — hitting rock bottom but bouncing back.”
