Khruangbin recently released a new single, “So We Won’t Forget,” a track from their forthcoming album, Mordechai, out June 26 on Dead Oceans, in association with Night Time Stories.

The Texas psychedelic funk trio — consisting of Laura Lee Ochoa (bass), Mark Speer (guitar), and Donald “DJ” Johnson (drums) — also shared the song’s music video, directed by Scott Dungate and co-produced by Wieden+Kennedy Tokyo x Nakama.

Following lead single/video “Time (You and I),” “one of the most immediately likable things that the band has put out” (Stereogum), the lilting “So We Won’t Forget” finds Laura filling her apartment with memories she’s scrawled on Post-Its to prevent them slipping away. Over soothing, guitar and light-stepping percussion, the band’s honeyed voices urge in unison: “call me what you want // call me what you need // words don’t have to say // keep it to myself.”

“Memory is a powerful thing,” Laura said. “Now more than ever it’s important to tell the people you love that you love them, so that they don’t forget.”
