The queer musician's new EP was recorded entirely at Los Angeles' Gold Diggers Studio.
Casey MQ's gentle falsetto and personal storytelling began to establish themselves as foundational for his artist project; now those elements, once wrapped in bedroom-pop production, are on full display without any distraction.. Co-written by the pair alongside Brad Loughead, the track celebrates the simple, constant freedom of riding your bike in a life of endless uncertainty and questioning. “If it tastes sweet, it’s meant to be/ No need to solve it,” they sing together, softly.
“That lyric, ‘I don't have all the answers, but I got a bike,’ has a particular impact for me,” Casey MQ says. “I've spent years in Toronto on my bicycle and there really is nothing quite like being in the city on your bike. With each push of the pedal you enter this weightless coasting that supersedes any previous thought for that time. The song carries that feeling for me and it feels so good to sing about something like that.
What is the process like for making a live EP? Do you rehearse? Is there room for spontaneity in-studio? When Cecile, Brad and I initially wrote "I Got A Bike," I spent so much time trying to make various produced versions of the song afterward that I was unsatisfied with. I felt like each time it lost the heart of what made the song so special when we wrote it. The decision to record it live off the floor had a more touching sentiment to it.
