DSD Meets SVE

One of America's great but criminally overlooked rock bands, Deep Sea Diver, have a new album, Impossible Weight, coming out in October.  Today, they released the titular track, featuring none other than Sharon Van Etten on supporting vocals.  Frontwoman Jessica Dobson writes:

We are incredibly, INCREDIBLY pleased to announce to you this morning, our new single, Impossible Weight is out.  I could not be prouder to present this song that means the world to me— and features one of my favorite artists in the world, Sharon Van Etten.  It was such an absolute pleasure to work with someone that has been a true inspiration to me and specifically while writing and recording this song.   

Along with it, we are releasing a music video that is one of my proudest moments as an artist.  A moment where we can present visuals that speak to this season—a time of loneliness, of desolation, but also of beauty.  I wanted to create something very triumphant and beautiful in a year that has been the opposite of those things. 

I want to ask you, if you are willing, to come alongside of us today. This is a terribly difficult season for musicians.  Without touring, it is almost impossible to get our music out into the world. Like all bands, shows have always been the way in which we sell the majority of records and promote our albums. Right now, that is simply not an option for us. SO.. we humbly ask of you…. If you would like to help us succeed and you believe in us—SPREAD THE WORD. Post about our song / music video today. Word of mouth is ALWAYS the best way forward for us.  Follow us on Spotify, Youtube, etc..   Like our comments and comment yourself on our posts—as that alters the algorithm that can enable our music to get out to more and more people.  The more people that hear and enjoy our music, the more sustainable this can be for us.   

We love you and have been excited about this day for so long.  This song is one of my favorites, and the video is so badass.  Hope you enjoy it and we truly hope to see you soon. 

XO
Jessica and Deep Sea Diver

Jessica Dobson and Sharon Van Etten - two of my favorite women on one great new track. Hopefully, this will mark the beginning of DSD's long overdue recognition by a wider audience.
