Following a successful run of Southern California dates on his ‘Georgie Goes West Tour’—including a notable sold-out performance at Pappy & Harriet’s—Twin Shadow has released “Awkward Backward,” the second single from his upcoming seventh album, ‘Cadet’. Arriving via Dom Recs, the track utilizes twisting synths and a push-pull rhythmic tension to navigate the internal friction of relationship self-doubt. Twin Shadow describes the song as a vulnerable confession regarding his own defensive shortcomings and the ego-driven need to predict a partner’s exit before it happens. By stripping back the layers of these insecurities, the track serves as both an admission of past patterns and a sincere invitation to abandon the chase for the upper hand in favor of genuine emotional connection.
