Amy Pinkus asks the question we all fear in heartstrings and harmonies with "How's Your New Wife?"

Amy Pinkus is crafting a song that sounds like a page ripped straight from the diary of every broken heart. Her new indie-pop single, "How's Your New Wife?" is an unvarnished soul-banger that dramatizes the bittersweet ache of watching someone you once loved add on to their life with someone else.

Pinkus draws you in from the first note with lyrics that tell a story and feel as personal as a drunk late-night chat with a longtime friend. The fluid harmonies dance lightly through the melody, enveloping you like a comfortable blanket, even as the words cut to the quick: man, no pretense, just raw emotion delivered with elegance and vulnerability.

"How's Your New Wife?" that relatability is not the only thing that makes it so compelling, though that's undeniable. It's the thing Pinkus knows how to express that so many of us can't quite find the words for. The low-grade envy, the haunting what-ifs, and the bittersweet acceptance are all present and accounted for, packed into a song that feels equally personal and universal.

If you're a person who likes music that doesn't fill the backdrop but, without you having to invite it, moves up against you and says, "How's Your New Wife?" deserves a place on your playlist. Amy Pinkus writes emotional landscapes, which are as gorgeous as heartbreaking.
