LA’s own Serpentwithfeet has come through with his brand new song “Fellowship,” the latest glimpse at his upcoming project Deacon. With the album set to land in full on March 26th on the Secretly Canadian imprint, this percussive and melodic new track bodes well for what’s to come. Produced by the combined talents of Serpentwithfeet, Sampha, and Lil Silva, “Fellowship” takes its time in unfolding. Lyrically, Serpent’s falsetto paints a vivid picture of intimacy and self-assurance. “This is the blessing of my 30’s,” he sings. “I’m spending less time worrying and more time recounting the love.”
As he explains in a press release, “Fellowship” is “dedicated to anyone who has had a good friend or been a good friend.” In a time plagued by uncertainty, it’s refreshing to see such themes explored, and Serpent’s wistful melodies pair nicely with the soothing arrangement. A song to get lost in, especially when some of the more experimental production choices enter the mix. “Our fascination with prosecco, The silly face you make when I say hello,” he sings. “I never understood deep deep breaths, Til you came around and you just changed the way I laughed.”

Our breezy Sunday afternoons
Christmas films in July with you
The canon of Baltimore tales
Our crafty looks when there’s nothing to wear
Maybe it’s the blessing of my 30’s/thirties
I’m spending less time worrying and more time recounting the love
More time recounting the love

Our fascination with Prosecco
The silly face you make when I say, “Hello”

I’m spending less time worrying and more time recounting the love
