A lot has changed since indie favorites Horsegirl released their acclaimed dream-of-the-1990s debut album, Versions Of Modern Performance. The three members of the band — Nora Cheng, Penelope Lowenstein, and Gigi Reece — moved to New York City and toured with Wilco before returning to Chicago earlier this year to record their sophomore album. Produced by Cate Le Bon, Phonetics On And On — out February 14, 2025 — is described as “an exploration of the lines between pop, minimalism, and playful experimentation.”
Check out the video for first single “2468” above.
