Garage-rock four-piece **Girl and Girl** share zesty new single and lyric video ***“The Cow”***, out today via Virgin Music Australia (AU/NZ) and Sup Pop (rest of world). The bold, riff-driven track arrives just in time for the band’s upcoming tour of Australia’s East Coast over October / November 2024.  

Frontman Kai James shares on the track, *“All my friends call me ‘The Cow!’ Not really, but sometimes I think they should, because sometimes I let my cow brain speak louder than my cow heart, and of all of your cow parts, you should listen most to your cow heart.”*

The new single follows the release of ***[Call A Doctor](https://scrabblepr.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4794fdce89f5a4d847d12131f&id=df81aedd74&e=516daed6c2)****, *the band’s debut full-length which received support from the likes of NME, Rolling Stone, DIY, BBC 6 Music, among other taste makers, and is currently nominated for The Triffid’s 2024 QLD Album of the Year Award.  
   
Known for their high-intensity live performance, Girl and Girl recently concluded their second tour of the UK and EU, and supported Royel Otis on their sold-out 20-date run of the US earlier this year. The band will play a bunch of headline shows across Australia’s East Coast throughout October / November 2024, in celebration of the new single, before performing at all Laneway Festival dates in February 2025!

**What people are saying about Girl and Girl:**

*“A fantastic debut from a sparkly and singular new band.”***– [Call The Doctor] NME**  
  
*“Emotional mayhem that’s relatable, and very catchy.”***– Rolling Stone Australia**  
  
*“A perfect dose of indie–punk rock at its best.”***– [“Hello”] Happy Mag**  
  
*“A warped mix of Talking Heads, Rolling Blackouts and bits of post-punk but led by a man with a mullet and one of their aunts plays drums in the band!” ***– [SXSW Review] BBC 6 Music**  
  
*“Brisbane four-piece Girl and Girl are ones to watch in the world of sharp-tongued raucous-riffed garage rock…Girl and Girl’s all too rare multigenerational collaboration brings a fresh angle on the post-Strokes garage rock sound.”***– KUTX Radio**  
  
*“Girl and Girl recall the stalwarts of 2010s garage rock, their affinity with jangly guitars and buoyant rhythms undercut by feverishly intense playing and a cloying sense of claustrophobia.”*  
**– [Call The Doctor] DIY**  
  
* “…every member of Girl and Girl is too young to have experienced the garage rock revivalism of Y2K firsthand, save Aunty Liss, the drummer who supports her nervy nephews in this band of Australian post-punk traditionalists. Fronted by the wiry Kai James — handsome and jittery, never reclusive — the group treated sacred post-punk texts as if they were a common language when they played the 13th Floor, giving their barbed hooks and sideways riffs real kick. They’re carrying a torch without succumbing to nostalgia or formalism, all because they’re intoxicated by the noise they make.”***– [Best of SXSW 2024] Rolling Stone**
