sock jock is the project of 20-year-old Chicago-based wunderkind Taylor Marie. She caught our attention last year with her rather addictive single “know.”
She has since returned with it’s equally promising follow-up, “than,” a track that was written, recorded, and produced herself and “explores the hollowing experience of dating someone who cares more about their outside life than their relationship with you.”
It feels intertwined in the world of 90s indie rock with the smart and charm of acts like Snail Mail and Diet Cig, thriving in the world of a charming DIY style. It’s a cathartic listen, one that I imagine would go over well live once shows make their long-awaited return.
Enjoy a listen to “than” right now below.
