SASAMI shares alternate version of "Tried To Understand" featuring J Mascis

SASAMI shares an alternate version of Squeeze standout “Tried to Understand” featuring Dinosaur Jr’s J Mascis. "’Tried to Understand’ was a song that took many forms before it became what you hear on my album, Squeeze,” says SASAMI. “This rawer cut with J. Mascis is kind of a peek into the different dimensions and moods one composition can inhabit. This version features Ty Segall on drums, me on bass and guitar and J. on the ripping leads and backing vocals. It’s the less cute version of what spinning out can sound like.” 


Hot on the heels of a month-long European tour with Mitski, SASAMI is currently on a North American  tour with HAIM. Her feral and cathartic live show is not to be missed! All dates below. 

SASAMI Squeeze

Album | 25th February 2022

Squeeze, the second full length from Sasami, surveys the raw aggression of nu-metal, tender plainspokenness of country-pop and folk rock, and dramatic romanticism of classical music.
