Goodman now follows with “Snapping Turtle,” which she detailed:
“My anxiety and depression had been amounting to weird realistic dreams, where I would vividly enter certain eras of my childhood and young adulthood. I upped my therapy to two, sometimes three times a week during my time at home, and the song ‘Snapping Turtle’ is a reflection of that.
“That song came to me as seasons that have passed, and is a window into my process of understanding the impact of moving through time and in understanding how it shapes you and others, as well as reconciling with both a past and future where certain factors were out of your control. It’s a seamless story, with no true chorus, much like my persistent dreams and conversations in therapy.”
“Snapping Turtle” arrived with a music video which utilizes early footage from Peabody and Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Elaine McMillon Sheldon’s 2023 film King Coal. Watch below:
