New video ‘Motor City Steel’ now! Courtney Taylor-Taylor explains the origin of the song as follows: “‘Motor City Steel’ is a true story. I lived in a small SW Washington town from 2006 - 2014 and found this to be a fairly common occurrence. The guys generally get online to check out fishing gear, truck parts, and compound bows etc. whereas more and more the gals check out New York, Paris, Hollywood and the like. I changed the names for the song, but when “Rikki” finally did come back, it was well over a year later. They are married now and have two kids.”

The debut full- length album from LAFAWNDAH, ‘Ancestor Boy’, announced today and releasing on 22nd March 2019 via her own label imprint Concordia, is a bracing statement of intent, heralding an artist unbound in scope, scale, and intensity. She opens 2019 with bold single ‘Daddy’, plotting new territory onto her own highly personalized map of influence - a map drawing the club, composition, and pop into thrillingly unresolved, ultramodern erotic.
