Don’t Go Chasing Home is about giving each other permission, but without letting go"
The above words are N.P. York’s description of the single, which he co-wrote with Mark Hede from The Fools. The single marks the band's first release since their debut album Music For Fools from March 2024, which led to rotation on Danish National Radio. Now, the 8-member orchestra is back with the energetic and colorful indie-pop duet, Don’t Go Chasing Home.
The song addresses the courage to make big and (un)selfish decisions in the context of a relationship. What do you do in a relationship when one partner feels stuck? When restlessness looms, but you fear the adventure because you don’t know what you'll return to? And how does the other partner feel, seeing their loved one unhappy and unfulfilled? These are the themes N.P. York & The Fools explore on the single.
On this track, N.P. York & The Fools dive into a more indie-pop corner of their repertoire, showcasing a new side by releasing a duet with one of the band's many vocalists, Asta Olivia. *Don’t Go Chasing Home* is produced by Esben Svane, and the soundscape draws inspiration from Swedish singers like Sarah Klang and Amanda Bergmann, with beautiful guitar passages, ethereal synthesizers, and driving drums. Don’t Go Chasing Home is produced by Esben Svane.
