You were a cool girl, but it didn’t work out You rock the dance floor, and you give good hugs We had a fun time making out at clubs It was a good one, I wasn’t ready for love Go ahead and sing along to this nondramatic breakup song Neither of us were wrong, but I’d rather be alone than date you I don’t have to hate you We were so punk rock, with our grown-out roots We took a photo, yeah we looked real cute You were so tall in those high-heeled boots It was a good one, I wasn’t ready for you Go ahead and sing along to this nondramatic breakup song Neither of us were wrong, but I’d rather be alone than date you I don’t have to hate you And at the party, I see you talking to Another pretty girl in eyeliner I think I’m happy for what we were It was a good one, but it didn’t work Go ahead and sing along to this nondramatic breakup song Neither of us were wrong, but I’d rather be alone than date you I don’t have to hate you

Friday Night 03:43
Boots made of snakeskin he found in the trash bin Striking a pose where we land Leather’s our armor, whiskey our water Boredom and ardor our friends On this Friday night The music is our fight And we go and dance These nowhere Friday nights The music is our light And we go and dance Laugh at a lawyer We linger and loiter Cool in the mirror of our world On this Friday night The music is our fight And we go and dance These nowhere Friday nights The music is our life And we go and dance The music is our right And we go and dance Sparkling pink sneakers We’re not supposed to be here Missing the bar and the bands Turn up the speaker And sing like you mean it You’ve still got the notes in your hands On this Friday night The music is our fight And we go and dance These nowhere Friday nights The music is our light And we go and dance The music is our right And we go and dance These nowhere Friday nights...

Have you talked to Roxanne at all? We hung out a week ago She says she’s sad and doesn’t understand Why you had to let her go Yeah, she looked so surprised I’m not trying to take sides Because I know that you’re dear old friends of mine But you really fucked up It’s just basic stuff that you’ll learn in time But how’s she gonna take it When she learns about her replacement In the blink of an eye, you’ve erased it from your mind I’m never seen you so happy before And I think that it’s for real You said you’ve fallen in love, and it’s cute I just wonder how it feels ‘Cause you got a head start Went straight for the heart You’re telling me she is perfect, kind and smart Well I’m sure that she is But does she know what you did? And were you really ever planning to tell her? ‘Cause how’s she gonna take it When she learns that she’s the replacement For a love that couldn’t make it Or maybe she’s the one you’ve waited for I told Roxanne she’s better off As the impartial party does Hell, I told you the same because We both know it’s true enough But did you see a shift? Were there any hints? Or was there somebody else, she questioned Well I couldn’t say yes And I couldn’t say no So I’ll just play the idiot But how’s she gonna take it When she learns about her replacement But life’s too short to fake it Who knows, this time you might just make it work

Glitter 02:25
Bubbles and foam stars Leather and glass bongs Sparkles and megaphones You’ve got your platforms and glow bombs Silver electrons When the glitter hits your sheets, we’ll be home Girl on girl On boy on girl On they on them On we again Boy on boy On girl on boy On they on them On we again Fishnets and all stars Leopards and hot tubs Wearing the universe You got your strobe lights and condoms Rainbow piñatas Get the glitter in my sheets and c’mon Girl on girl On boy on girl On they on them On we again Boy on boy On girl on boy On they on them On we again Stardust and shotguns Flowers and bondage Riding the unicorn You got your earrings and blow jobs Whiskey and bathrobes When the glitter leaves your sheets, we’ll be gone Girl on girl On boy on girl On they on them On we again Boy on boy On girl on boy On they on them On we again

about

Linnea's Garden's is proud to present "Nowhere Friday Nights," 13 minutes of power-pop-punk perfection to be released March 5 on Red on Red Records.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Blondie, The Go-Gos, and The Ronettes, the EP combines new tracks with material written over the past eight years while singer/songwriter/guitarist Linnea Herzog fronted PowerSlut (2019 Rock & Roll Rumble Finalists and 2020 Boston Music Award Winners for Rock Artist of the Year).

Herzog describes her inspiration for the new EP as follows:
"The title 'Nowhere Friday Nights' comes from a line in the song "Friday Night," which was written this past summer. It's about that feeling of having nowhere to go on Friday night, which we all have had during lockdown. So many Friday nights, I've wanted to be playing or at a show. Hands and I often found ourselves doing the next best thing, dressing up and playing loud. 'The music is our fight' reflects this theme of persistent self-expression."

The new EP was recorded with Linnea’s "quarantine pod," Hands O’d and Tom O'Donnell (both of Corner Soul) who traded off on bass and drums. Linnea’s Garden’s current lineup is Herzog on guitar/lead vocals, Amy Galaviz on bass/backing vocals, and Hands O'd on drums.

Herzog says of this time, “Music has been my salvation, the one thing I can control, it's what has kept me going during these crazy times.” Get ready, because this music is going to be astounding.
