Dawes’ Taylor Goldsmith & Mandy Moore Release New Song ‘Finding You Backwards’

46

Dawes frontman Taylor Goldsmith and Mandy Moore teamed up for a new song, “Finding You Backwards.” The tune appears on the soundtrack to the Amazon Original film, I Want You Back, starring Charlie Day and Jenny Slate and set for release on Prime Video next week.

Captured at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, Goldsmith co-wrote “Finding You Backwards” with I Want You Back composer Siddhartha Khosla.

“Sidd is a master composer/songwriter and based on the little music I heard during our first conversation, the line ‘Finding You Backwards’ showed up right away,” Taylor said in a press release. “Then getting to sing it with my wife made it even more special for us. We’re very psyched to be a part of this movie but even more so to have created such an important memory for us.”

Khosla also weighed in on the collaboration:

After reading the script I wrote a piece of music that ended up becoming the main musical motif of the film’s score. The theme had this distinct melodic hook that we’d been teasing throughout the film, and so it felt natural to turn that theme into a classic sounding song to end the film. I proposed that Taylor and I write the song together, and [director] Jason [Orley] was thrilled by the idea as he and I both are huge fans of Taylor’s band, Dawes. Taylor wrote beautiful lyrics to my melody and music, and to cap it off Taylor and Mandy sang it so gorgeously as a duet.
