Dovetail – “sunday night”
Hudson Valley duo Dovetail, made up of Brynne Mershon and Naomi Sullins, have released “sunday night”, a vivid ballad about loss and the pull of returning to something that feels unfinished. The song extends the group’s run of emotionally immersive dream-pop and indie-folk, following “roadkill baby”, released a couple of months earlier.
Written in spring 2024, “sunday night” pairs repeating refrains and droning chords with acoustic guitar and touches of banjo. The duo say its composition and themes reflect a transitional period, while its lyrics tell a story of loneliness, memory and seeking reassurance among the stars.
In short
- Dovetail have released the ballad “sunday night”.
