It’s been a few months since Illuminati Hotties‘ Sarah Tudzin dropped the absurdist and playful album Let Me Do One More. Now that she’s gearing up to hit the road for a lengthy tour, Tudzin offered fans a preview of her live show with the new single “Sandwich Sharer.”
Throughout the track, Tudzin sings of searching for someone to match her chaotic energy. True to the subject matter, the song teeters between slow and sparse and quick-tempoed and bombastic. Tudzin’s playful lyrical delivery is contrasted by a low, grumbling electric guitar and consistently crashing cymbals. Eventually, the song ends the way it started, with scarce instrumentals which leave room for Tudzin to conclude with wistful verses.
As Tudzin said herself, “Sandwich Sharer” was written while she was looking for someone special in her life:
“‘Sandwich Sharer’ was very much written at the precipice of unknowns – I was seeking a teammate at a time where I felt swayed by nostalgia for youth as opposed to the reality of the momentum of life. And it feels so good to be close to someone who knows you so well it’s like you finish each others’… sandwiches.”
