Andrew McMahon Announces New Album; Shares New Song

Andrew McMahon will release Tilt at the Wind No More on March 31st. Today he’s shared “Lying on the Hood of Your Car.” He also talked with Consequence about the song:

“For me, this song is pure nostalgia,” McMahon said in a statement. “I made a conscious decision when I was writing it to imagine a whole world of important figures in my life lying next to me on the hood of that imagined vehicle. In one breath it’s a song about young love and in another it’s about those nights out with friends. Nights that ended in parking lot conversations about lives you might lead one day and places you might escape to if you could. I rarely build imagined worlds when I write songs but something about this one feels very much like a memory to me.”
