Strongboi (Alice Phoebe Lou and Ziv Yamin) release their first single of the year titled “Think Twice.” The hazy, neo-psych jewel offers a micro melodic mission statement: “We just want the music to be front and center and for that to be all we can offer,” the band shares.
Charming and upbeat, it is only when peeling back the layers that the vulnerability in not knowing where you stand becomes clear. Meticulous instrumentation and heavenly harmonies are peppered with Strongboi‘s unmistakable signature seasoning.
As the band adds, “’Think Twice’ is our playful first offering of our second album, inviting people into the world of our favorite body of work yet.”

Strongboi are building on a Massive Year
