Sep 19, 2019 By Christopher Roberts Photography by Brian Ziff Soccer Mommy

Soccer Mommy (the project of Nashville native Sophie Allison) has shared a brand new song “lucy.” There’s no word of a new album or EP, so right now it’s just a standalone single, perhaps in honor of her impending tour dates with Vampire Weekend this month and Wilco next month. (Note: the song title is meant to be styled all lowercase.) Check out “lucy” below via a visual reminiscent of the movie poster for The Matrix. Also below are the single’s cover art and Soccer Mommy’s upcoming tour dates.

Allison had this to say about the song in a press release: “‘Lucy’ is a really fun song for me because it has a dark, evil vibe. It’s a song about struggling with inner demons and your own morality, but I masked it with this scenario of being seduced by the devil. I’m really excited to share this with everyone because I think it shows a different side of my writing.”

Allison released her debut full-length album, Clean, back in March 2018 via Fat Possum. It was one of our Top 100 Albums of 2018. Back in January she shared a demo version of the album’s “Blossom,” as well as the B-side “Be Seeing You.”
