Fir the Band – Twin Bed
Fir the Band hold onto the small emotional details, turning the closeness of a twin bed into something raw, nostalgic and beautifully human.
Edinburgh trio Fir the Band return with Twin Bed, a delicate indie pop cut built around hazy guitars, warm texture and soft but emotionally clear storytelling. Written in their flat while talking through old breakups and the nerves that come with looking ahead, the song captures the strange pull between what once was and what still lingers.
They built the early version at a desk in their guitarist’s bedroom, before finishing it in a small Leith studio. That closeness bleeds into the song itself. The arrangement is intimate, gently layered, and full of tiny production choices that let the lyrics breathe. It feels handmade in the best way, equal parts vulnerable and quietly confident.
Fir the Band’s style sits somewhere between bedroom pop and cinematic indie daydream. Their influences, from Clairo to Holly Humberstone and Wallows, can be heard in the mellow grooves and emotional openness, but Twin Bed stands on its own. It is personal, imperfect and quietly powerful, the kind of track that feels tailor made for late night drives and private reflection.
Twin Bed marks another strong step in the band’s evolution, showing how their DIY charm can support deeper storytelling and a richer emotional palette.
