Have you ever felt trapped in a sunny place? Inspired by the eerie 1972 book The Stepford Wives by Ira Levin, Hayley And The Crushers new single Cul-de-Sac is a moody exploration of the feeling of being trapped by both internal and external forces. Cul-de-Sac was recorded and mixed by legendary LA punk producer Paul Roessler at Josie Cotton‘s Kitten Robot Studios in Los Angeles and mastered by Mass Giorgini.

“2020 was a bitch, so it’s probably somewhat expected that the ‘summer jams’ of 2021 would be tinged with a bit of PTSD. As many of you already know, Dr. Cain and I were literally stuck hanging out in the cul-de-sac where we live. I’d walk the dog ten times a day, waving to the same neighbors. The paranoia and despair of a global pandemic unfolding day-to-day became part of the daily ritual, like watering the vegetables. This song reflects that silent screaming feeling that so many of us now know so well.”
