Becca Harvey, the Atlanta-based singer-songwriter behind girlpuppy, has released the highly anticipated video for her latest single, ‘Windows,’ directed by Trent Wayne (MJ Lenderman, Sinai Vessel). Out now via Captured Tracks, ‘Windows’ is a hauntingly beautiful exploration of heartbreak, memory, and emotional longing. The song’s dreamy, layered sound, inspired by the sonic textures of Yo La Tengo, perfectly complements its lyrical theme: the inescapable pull of memories after a breakup. With lyrics that reflect the inescapable reminders of a past relationship, the song captures the feeling of knowing that, despite trying to move forward, both partners are still tethered by the memories of what they once shared.
Harvey explains that ‘Windows’ is about the impossibility of truly letting go:
“No matter how hard you try, you still find things that remind you of your past partner–and you know they’re going through the same thing,” – girlpuppy.
Harvey’s nod to Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Silver Springs’ in the bridge adds a personal and nostalgic touch, infusing the song with a sense of emotional depth and timeless longing. Its reflection not just on the pain of separation, but on the beauty and importance of what once was, even as it inevitably fades.
Following acclaim for previous singles like ‘Champ’ which garnered praise from Clash, The Line of Best Fit, and The FADER, girlpuppy continues to capture the attention of both critics and fans alike. ‘Windows’ has already been named one of Paste’s Best New Songs and was featured as a Staff Pick by Exclaim!, cementing Harvey’s place as one of indie music’s most exciting voices. With a growing fanbase, girlpuppy has already toured with artists such as DIIV, Nation of Language, and Sloppy Jane, and continues to build momentum. Becca Harvey’s emotionally resonant songwriting and captivating performances are propelling her into the spotlight, and fans can catch her live at the upcoming Abortion Access Benefit show in Atlanta this January.
