Yumi Zouma have announced their highly-anticipated third album Truth or Consequences is due out March 13 on Polyvinyl Record Co. The band has also shared single “Cool For A Second”, accompanied by a video directed by Nick Mckk. Christie Simpson’s wispy vocals elegantly blend against the song’s soft pop beats, expressing melancholic hope, the song embraces the idea that life does not always provide answers nor closure and captures the undeniable release that comes from saying the truth, even if only to oneself. Charlie Ryder, bassist for the group, explains the song was almost scrapped as a b-side before becoming a single,“The song was demoed in Los Angeles and then long forgotten, destined for the scrap heap. A spark of inspiration from Josh in the introduction reestablished that for us, the most conspicuous of melodies are often hidden in modest beginnings.”
