Oakland indie folk artist Stephen Steinbrink has delivered their new single “Pony” today.

The track comes with an animated music video created by Steinbrink which can be seen below. The artist said this about their new single/video:

"“Pony” was recorded at Tiny Telephone in Oakland by Adam Hirsch, and features my friend and longterm collaborator Andrew Dorsett on drum kit, hammond organ, piano, and vibraphone. I later animated the illustrated video by hand, matching the feeling to the song’s lyrical concept about of the often hilarious chaotic web of cause and effect. I didn’t set out with a narrative plan for the video and instead just let the story take shape on its own— I was pleasantly surprised to discover that it wanted to tell a tale of interplanetary animal liberation catalyzed by a lemon-lime flavored beverage for dogs."

“Pony” stems from Steinbrink’s forthcoming studio album Disappearing Coin, which will be released this Friday (August 18) via Western Vinyl. Pre-orders for the album can be made here.

Steinbrink also revealed a North American tour in support of the album, which kicks off on October 18 inside Fargo’s Aquarium. For this trek, Steinbrink’s live band will feature Cole Pulice, Taylor Vick (Boy Scouts), and Paul Frunzi (Ever Ending Kicks, Mount Eerie). On select dates, Lexie, Cole Pulice, Ever Ending Kicks, and Briana Marela will be the opening act.
