urika’s bedroom is a Los Angeles-based indie rock project who emerged last summer with their debut single “Junkie.” Ahead of their upcoming tour dates supporting Nourished By Time this month (plus a headline gig at Brooklyn’s Elsewhere), the enigmatic musician is back with the self-produced song “XTC,” their first release on True Panther Records.

“XTC” was mixed by Chris Coady, whose recent studio credits also include Beach House and Slowdive — which checks out! urika’s bedroom also puts a big focus on sweeping melodies, pop structures, and enough reverb to blur their lyrics into near-oblivion: “I wanna ride for you through the night/Wheels to the road, ecstasy overdrive,” go some endearing lines.

A press release promises more music from urika’s bedroom soon. But for now, listen to “XTC” below.
