Today, Sweet Petunia releases their new single "Good Part" on Righteous Babe Records. Driven by lilting banjos, brazen guitars, and pounding drums, “Good Part” is the quintessential Sweet Petunia track and a rousing label debut from members Madison Simpson and Mairead Guy.

“‘Good Part’ was written after a particularly emotional night at the college house a lot of our friends lived in," Simpson remembers. "The house was nearly always in total disrepair - dishes piled up in the sink with a leaking tap, records skipping on the record player while nobody paid attention - and I absolutely loved being there. Most of the song is about how I felt I was being neglected by somebody I loved dearly, mirroring the ways in which their house was also not cared for. The chorus reflects the betrayal I was feeling, and the plugged-in instrumentation (electric guitar, drums) we decided on adds to this emotional turmoil."
