New Single by Sonny Miles is a Poignant Critique of the Social-Media Self

To be myself, or not to be? On their collaborative new single out today, Sonny Miles and William Hinson grapple with social media personas as second skins–or, for better or for worse, not knowing where one begins and the other ends. With a minimalist approach to instrumentation, the lyrics are able to permeate: “Why should I be myself, when everybody loves me for somebody else?” Miles and Hinson croon in harmony. (They answer their own question with a final pensive verse.) Stream the track below.
