Wednesday Release Video For New Single, “Bath County”

Posted on 02/23/2023

Wednesday release a video for ‘Bath County,’ the driving new single from their highly awaited new album Rat Saw God, out April 7th.

“This is a song I wrote on a porch in Bath County, Virginia when me and [lead guitarist] Jake [Lenderman] were visiting Jake’s moms hometown. It includes some imagery I saw on that trip as well as a description of a guy we saw overdosed in a parking lot early one morning on our way to Dollywood,” Karly Hartzman explains.

Of the video, which Hartzman also directed, she says “The video I made myself is an homage to PJ Harvey’s video for ‘Man-Size.’ I’ve never seen someone emit as much confidence as she does in that video. I wanted to pretend for a minute I possessed that attitude but it was harder than it looks! Endless respect for Peej.”

Both of the album’s previously released singles, “Chosen To Deserve” and “Bull Believer,” have been awarded the coveted Best New Track distinction from Pitchfork who also profiled the band called them “one of the most compelling indie rock bands in America,” with NPR predicting that Rat Saw God “may be one of the biggest [albums] of 2023.”
