The Electorate - If I Knew

Описание: The Electorate is Eliot Fish, Nick Kennedy and Joshua Morris.

If I Knew is the debut single from The Electorate, taken from the forthcoming LP 'You Don't Have Time To Stay Lost', out soon on Templebear Records and distributed by MGM. The album, and this single, was recorded by Tim Kevin at his Tempe River Studios and mastered by JJ Golden in California.

If I Knew was the last song recorded for the album - something we'd waited a long time to do. We'd ripped the song apart the week before we recorded it, so it was still fresh and frantic when we did. Each take got us closer to the song being right, but closer to the end of the three of us recording our debut. Do we keep getting it wrong so we can keep having fun?

The clip is culled together from footage of a bus ride to Oaxcaca in Mexico, and some kids playing on the south coast of NSW. Thanks to Lester Francois for the remote technical assistance, and all those who agreed to be in the clip.

"Inside a south coast caravan, Oaxaca was a better plan" happens to be sung at the end of the song, which celebrates how a tiny moment - someone saying yes - can shift and then create lives, and still give you reason to celebrate and appreciate how lucky that moment has made you, many years later. Or something like that.
