Caroline Polachek premieres new song ‘DANG’ with TED talk powerpoint TV performance
Caroline Polachek has released her first new single since the release of the Desire, I Want To Turn Into You album earlier this year.
‘DANG’ was premiered with a special performance on Late Show with Colbert with Polachek playing an avant-lecturer (“a Ted Talk from a fever dream–an appropriately bewildering powerpoint presentation”), and miming to the new song featuring a hyperpop production by Polachek & Cecile Believe (SOPHIE, Shygirl, Dorian Electra, etc.), with additional production by Danny L Harle.

Last week, Polachek did a NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert, with stripped-down versions of ‘Pretty In Possible’, ‘Blood And Butter’, ‘Sunset’, and ‘I Believe’.
