MAY 1, 2019 (LOS ANGELES, CA) – California-based duo slenderbodies share their new song “dewdrops” today via tastemaker indie label Avant Garden and announce The Komorebi headlining tour (see full routing below) which kicks off on September 27 in San Francisco making stops in Chicago, New York, Atlanta to name a few and wrapping on October 23 in Los Angeles. They will also be performing at a few festivals this summer including Lollapalooza. “dewdrops,” the first release from their forthcoming debut album is groovy and melancholic embodying the signature sound that slenderbodies has stamped and made their own. 

On the new song, slenderbodies states, "'dewdrops' is a surreal take on our creative spaces and how they hold a place of sanctity in our lives. this track is the introverts muse, essentially normalizing and validating the need to hide away in order to create.  the song came from a brief moment of realization walking back into the home studio one day. we were so used to stepping into nature and having a feeling of peace as you notice the melody in the details outdoors.  it took a small moment of reflection to realize that we get a similar feeling of peacefulness, even extending to bliss by stepping into our creative haven. we wanted to write “dewdrops” as a love letter to the creative spaces we have. we felt the song should be this surreal, hypnotic moment on the record. it’s not about any point of reflection, or any place in the future. this song encourages us to be present in your spaces that we made and find peace in that.”
