Asher White returns with new single, "Nightingale Version (Sailor's Moon)"

"Nightingale Version (Sailor's Moon)" follows White's 2025 album 8 Tips for Full Catastrophe Living as her first original new music since the release of the record, as she also dropped a cover album of Jessica Pratt's self-titled debut album back in February. The new track was written seven years ago, but features updated instrumental performances.

Speaking about the song, White explains: "Written in 2019 my sophomore year of college and originally appearing on that year’s In The Quarry. sort of embarrassing 'young' lyrics but an honest and undeniable melody. very meaningful song to me that I feared losing to time and wanted to dust off; the drums, vocals, and guitar are updated performances but I could not capture or recreate the idiosyncracies of the original piano and organ takes, which were recorded in a cavernous old church room on the RISD campus that someone had dragged an old Hammond organ and rickety upright piano into."
