  "account": "Sex Week, the indie duo, released their second EP titled \"Upper Mezzanine\" last year. This year, they have been focused on live performances, opening for acts such as Mitski, Acopia, Fcukers, and the recently recognized Cardinals. Now, they have returned with a new single, \"Life Is A Circle.\" Pearl Amanda Dickson, a member of the duo, states that \"Life Is A Circle\" stands as the focal point of their musical repertoire. Richard Orofino adds, \"It was cathartic to make. We used unconventional instruments like wooden recorders, accordions, and 808s, simply letting our creative desires guide us.\" The band's tour includes stops in New York, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Paris, Reykjavík, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Dallas, Austin, and Atlanta, among other cities.",
