Last summer, Caroline & Claude’s debut single Stir The Pot was a Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. I wasn’t the only one to praise it, by the way. The song was added to the triple j playlist, got over 400 spins on US college radio, airplay on BBC Radio 1, and coverage in multiple magazines.

If you liked that track, you’ll probably like their new single even better. Just try it via the player below. It’s Not That Bad… On the contrary, it’s hard to believe this is only the second track the siblings put out.

It’s Not That Bad totally lives up to the promise of their debut. It’s a huge leap forward, both in song-writing and production-wise. The track was mixed by Joe Brown (XL Recordings) and mastered by Stuart Hawkes (Ed Sheeran, PinkPantheress, Stormzy).

The duo wrote the song quite recently. Caroline explains: “The song is pretty self explanatory. Our candid lyrics discuss the complexity of moving out of a relationship. The song is saying: we’ve both got baggage, but we’ll be okay, I can help you and you can help me. It’s not that bad”.
