Sea Glass + Madge – Pencils

Cover Art / Studio Mocky

We weren’t quite sure how a Sea Glass and Madge collaboration would end up sounding, but it is, in fact, a wonderful thing.

‘Pencils’ is a chilled yet playful indie song that perfectly marries an eccentric production with charming vocals. Speaking on the creation of the track, Sea Glass says:

“This song is a couple years in the making. I wrote the inst demo right after I wrapped what became my first LP. In 2023 I went to SXSW thinking I’d find someone to sing on the song. That didn’t happen, so I sent it around to artists I could hear singing on it. I got unanimously good feedback but no one jumped on board…

“A year or more later, I got linked up with Madge by a mutual friend to work on something together. Their song “Saraghina” immediately made me think of “anyone’s guess” (the original demo title). Luckily, Madge liked the demo. The song was finished like an hour and a half later. The way Madge has with infectious melodies is bananas.”

Both Sea Glass and Madge have graced our pages in the past. In the years since, these two talents have respectively built up quite the fanbase from not only music lovers but also tastemakers like Wonderland Magazine and BBC Radio 1.
