Photo Credit Tenzing Dakpa  The ever-evolving, genre-bending, India-based project Peter Cat Recording Co. has a new album, BETA, coming August 9th, and today they are back with their next single, "Foolmuse", a song written by band member Kartik Pillai. While the band's transcultural sound is centered around the songwriting and vocals of Suryakant Sawhney, "Foolmuse" highlights another side of the band's sound. Speaking on the track, Kartik shares, "The song highlights the turbulence of losing oneself to a fool's muse, however good or euphoric it might make one feel."  “Foolmuse” follows their last single “Suddenly,” a beautifully consoling ode to vocalist Suryakant’s mother that acts as a goodbye letter to his late father. The incredibly touching video that came with it starred his mother where she hears the song for the very first time.  Listen to “Foolmuse” Watch the video for “Suddenly” Listen to  “People Never Change”  Watch the album trailer As the name suggests, Peter Cat Recording Co. is less a band and more of a self-sufficient factory of music and art. With 3 potent songwriters in Suryakant, Dhruv & Kartik, the group is building a legacy informed and echoing the spirit of groups like The Velvet Underground and The Beatles. Rooted in a DIY ethos, their music is littered with birdsong and the sounds of crickets and traffic, providing a sort of time stamp evidence within their recordings. The visions of their films follow a similar trajectory ranging from Suryakant’s drunken stumbling down the great wall of China imitating the God of death in “I’m Home”, to simply documenting the unfiltered romance of 2 stray dogs on a beach in Agoda, Goa in “Copulations”.   The next chapter of this entity began with the announcement of their new album, BETA, which arrives August 9th on Muddy Water. BETA serves as a temporal snapshot, as all PCRC albums do, capturing the members' personal evolution since their last offering, a painting of the living and the lived. With their third installment, the group's familial landscape expanded through marriage and childbirth. Produced by Suryakant Sawhney, Kartik Pillai, Dhruv Bhola, and Peter Cat Recording Co., BETA was one of five album titles that could have been. They wrote down all five, put them in a hat, and let the drummer Karan Singh's 6-month-old son reach in and pick. BETA emerged, an endearing word for "child" in Hindi. Peter Cat Recording Co.’s music mutates from album to album, with BETA they are refining their unique vision of 21st century pop music. Tickets for the group’s headline dates are on sale now. Part of a massive 77-date tour, with a mix of Khruangbin dates throughout the year, their own headline shows will begin August 23rd in Boise, ID, hitting Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, and more before returning overseas for many more dates, capped off with a six-date Indian tour concluding December 28th in Kolkata.  PCRC is Suryakant Sawhney on vocals and guitars, Karan Singh on drums, Dhruv Bhola on bass and samples, Rohit Gupta on keys, horns and woodwind, and Kartik Pillai  on guitars, horns and woodwind.
