Locate S,1 Shares video for “Go Back to Disnee”

Today Locate S,1 (aka Christina Schneider) shares the devastating bossa nova-inspired single “Go Back to Disnee” from the forthcoming full-length Wicked Jaw, due out July 28, 2023 on Captured Tracks. The song’s release is accompanied by a video directed by frequent collaborator Tristan Scott-Behrends.

What does it mean to be an American in the 21st century? What does it mean to be a woman? What does it mean to be a survivor? Schneider digs tunnels into collective memory on “Go Back to Disnee,” a song that could soundtrack an episode of The White Lotus. “Under the blankets, into the plastic dreams/Into the comfort of parental regimes,” Schneider purrs with a delivery so gentle that you might not detect the venom seeping through. On this tune Schneider’s exceptional songcraft is most evident through her ability to excavate the toxins lingering beneath the surface in a way where they begin to shine and radiate a strange beauty.

According to Christina Schneider: “On the 4th of July, 2020, George Floyd protests and COVID were in full swing and the celebrations I heard on my block were nauseating. I had just read a line from Cassavetes: ‘Maybe there really wasn’t an America. Maybe it was only Frank Capra.’ I sat down next to my open studio window so I could hear the explosions while I wrote this song.”

“Go Back to Disnee” follows June’s “Heart Attack” a therapeutic synth-pop track with a prominent bass groove that addresses PTSD and finding one’s way forward.
