Listen to Squirrel Flower’s New Single “Alley Light”

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
With her brand new album Tomorrow’s Fire arriving October 13 via Polyvinyl, Chicago’s Squirrel Flower has released “Alley Light.” The beloved project of Ella Williams continues to expand its own universe, and “Alley Light” is no different—conjuring flickers of Springsteen-like storytelling and Heartland-inspired melodies. “She says she wants to go far, outta town in my beat up car,” Williams sings from the POV of a down-on-his-luck guy with a dying car and a failing relationship. “Will she find another man who can take her there, when my drive burns out?” It’s a huge, exciting turn for Squirrel Flower, and one of Williams’ most well-constructed tracks to date.
