Finally getting to share this labor of love with the world, Tudzin feels like an old weight has been lifted off her shoulder… but a new fire has been lit beneath her too. While Tudzin was just talking about “u v v p,” her final statement rings true for the entirety of Let Me Do One More-from start to finish, the years-long journey leading up to this record has been an incredibly impactful one. Luckily, I pitched the idea to him and he was excited to do it. Initially, I thought I wanted this deep cowboy voice, but then I realized that Buck’s voice would be perfect.
Then, getting Buck was the cherry on top. “I was really trying to make this sort of Motown, girl-group sounding thing… but then I got stuck on the intersection where country music and surf music meet each other. “Buck!” Tudzin exclaims when the song was mentioned. With her hands tied due to her contract, but no clear path forward, Tudzin thought on her feet and quickly came up with a solution: she made Free I.H: This Is Not The One You’ve Been Waiting For, a separate album than the official “follow-up” she had been working on prior. I didn’t know what was going to happen next… and the way the label responded to the whole situation was by not really responding right away… so, they immediately became inactive online.” But when all the label drama went down, I kinda had to hit ‘Pause’ on everything. “I had been working on our new record in between touring and working on other people’s records, kinda putting everything together piece by piece. “I mean, it was definitely crazy-it was completely unexpected,” Tudzin tells American Songwriter. With the writing on the wall spelling out a pretty unideal circumstance, she decided to step back and try to get her bearings.
When the record label Illuminati Hotties was signed to started to fall apart, the band’s mastermind, Sarah Tudzin, was knee-deep in crafting the highly-anticipated follow-up to the “tenderpunk” outfit’s 2018 debut, Kiss Yr Frenemies.
