Band of Horses

"Whatever, Wherever"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Jun 2, 2016

With just over a week to go before Pacific Northwest-formed rock group Band of Horses release Why Are You OK, the group have unveiled a breezy preview from the set, "Whatever, Wherever."

Not to be confused with Shakira's old hip-shaker, "Whenever, Wherever," the new Band of Horses tune is a casually strummed, sock hop-style pop track. An ethereal stretch of guitar hovers in the ether as Ben Bridwell's softened vocals deliver the introductory Q: "What in the world could cause you question that?"

You'll hear him ponder the situation above the soundscape down below, courtesy of Zen Lowe's Beats 1 program. Meanwhile, Why Are You OK is due June 10.

UPDATE (6/3, 2:15 p.m.): You can now watch a video for the track below.
