Austin-based band Urban Heat have released new single, “Seven Safe Spaces”. Known for a fusion of Electronic and Post-Punk styles, the band’s new track is “playfully melancholy.” Urban Heat is also gearing up for the release of their sophomore full-length album, titled The Tower, which features “Seven Safe Spaces”

On “Seven Safe Places,” Jonathan Horstmann comments:

The song is about uncertainty and loss, and how each day of the week we have another opportunity to find a fleeting safety. I imagined a pair of star-crossed lovers on the run, and each day they find a place to hide out that gets compromised and they find themselves looking for the next. Life is like that sometimes. We can’t take any of our safe places for granted because there’s no telling how long they will exist.

Last year, the band appeared at California festivals like Cruel World in Pasadena and Darker Waves in Huntington Beach. At home, Urban Heat often appears at SXSW and Austin City Limits Festival.
