New Music
Where The Money Goes, The New Single From The Pleasures, Is Out Now
By Markus Hamence
Where the Money Goes is the brand new song from The Pleasures.
Fresh off a six-week tour of sold-out rooms and festivals in the UK and Scandinavia, the band is preparing for their Official Showcase at the 25th Anniversary AMERICANAFEST in Nashville, Tennessee – where they’ll join the ranks of the hottest and most talked-about Americana acts in the world. So the timing seems right to leak a little more of the new album to the world.

Written together on the road by co-front-persons Catherine Britt and Lachlan Bryan, Where the Money Goes is something of a cautionary tale, harmonised from start to finish by the pair to the accompaniment of dustbowl banjo, jagged percussion, and reverb-drenched electric guitar. Forthright, direct, and cutting, the song epitomises The Pleasures’ approach to making music together, and illustrates just why they’ve become a lauded songwriting partnership and a hot live act right now.
