Austin, Texas four-piece Good Looks are releasing a new album, Lived Here For a While, on June 7 via Keeled Scales. Now they have shared their third single, “Can You See Me Tonight?,” via a music video. Check out the song below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.
In a press release frontman Tyler Jordan says the song is about his relationship with his mom and “the connection to why I write songs and perform them, and how it affects my other relationships, turning darkness to light in the process.”
Riley Engemoen directed the song’s video and had this to say in a press release: “My friend Liz and I met Dan & Doris at the Broken Spoke and have since been creating a documentary on them called Forcefield of Love. Dr. Dan is known as ‘Austin’s coolest marriage and family therapist.’ Him and Doris are in love with one another, always color-coordinated in a honeymoon state. They spend most evenings dancing through Austin’s honky tonks and jazz clubs—blissfully and unabashedly forming a quantum energy field of Love—hypnotizing all of those in their orbit.”
Previously the band shared their first single, “If It’s Gone,” which was one of our Songs of the Week. Then they shared their second single, “Self-destructor,” via a music video. It was also one of our Songs of the Week.
Lived Here For a While is the band’s second album and the follow-up to 2022’s Bummer Year.
The album was influenced by an accidental lead guitarist Jake Ames had just after the band’s hometown record released show for Bummer Yearwhen he was hit by a car outside the venue and ended up in the hospital with a fractured skull and tailbone, along with short-term memory issues.
“We were in the hospital with him every day,” says frontman Tyler Jordan in a press release. “It wasn’t clear how bad it was going to be for Jake. We had no idea how this traumatic brain injury would affect him until the swelling went down. “We even wondered if we’d ever play music together again.”
Luckily Ames made a full recovery and joined by drummer Phil Dunne and bassist Robert Cherry, they set out to record Lived Here For a While at Texas’ Dandy Sounds with producer/engineer Dan Duszynski (of Loma and Cross Record). Harrison Anderson has since joined the band as their new bassist.
