Multi-JUNO nominated alternative-pop band Valley, comprised of Rob Laska (lead vocals, guitar), Alex Dimauro (bass), and Karah James (vocals, drums), drop “Vending Machine”.
Opening with the provocative question, “do you need to be entertained?,” the new single delivers pure entertainment with it’s playful lyrics and nostalgic alt-pop production. The track explores the unspoken give-and-take that exists within relationships and how they can often feel conditional and performative.
In the band’s words, “’Vending Machine’ is a song about transactional relationships with people. A Vending Machine exists to give things on demand. It doesn't have needs or emotions. People only approach it when they want something. A source of comfort, attention, validation, or entertainment. It's love that depends on output, not connection.”
