Horsegirl Share “Ballroom Dance Scene” Video, Announce New 7-Inch

Chicago trio Horsegirl have announced their first physical release, a 7-inch featuring “Ballroom Dance Scene” b/w “Sea Life Sandwich Boy,” out April 2 via Sonic Cathedral.

The two tracks were first shared on their EP Horsegirl: Ballroom Dance Scene et cetera (best of Horsegirl), which was featured in Paste’s 25 Best EPs of 2020. A music video for “Ballroom Dance Scene” shot by the members of Horsegirl accompanied the Tuesday announcement.

It’s easy to forget that the members of Horsegirl are high schoolers; they come off as seasoned shoegaze rockers with their fuzzy guitars and effortlessly interwoven vocals. The music video for “Ballroom Dance Scene” offers a small glimpse into their teenage sensibilities, as we can hear Gigi Reece joke to their bandmates that a squirrel might be waiting for them as they explore Reece’s attic. The rest of the music video consists of home videos shot over the course of the group’s winter break.
