The Beths have shared another song from their anticipated third album Expert In A Dying Field. “I'm the kind of person who wants to go swimming, but takes like ten minutes to get all the way into the cold water, slowly and painfully," says singer, songwriter and guitarist Liz Stokes of "Knees Deep." "I hate this about myself, and am kind of envious of people who can just jump straight in the deep end. In a shocking twist, this is also a metaphor?! For how I wish I was the kind of person who was brave and decisive instead of cautious and scared.”
The video for "Knees Deep" involves every member of the band taking a daring plunge -- actually bungee jumping off a bridge. Watch if you dare below.
The Beths are on a North American tour as we speak, wrapping things up just before Labor Day, and have just announced plans for their return next year. Their 2023 tour includes a NYC show at Brooklyn Steel on March 2. Tickets for new dates go on sale Friday, August 19 at 10 AM, and all dates are listed below.
Expert in a Dying Field is out September 16 via Carpark Records, and you can preorder it on canary yellow vinyl and pick up more Beths vinyl in the BV shop.
