Your Future Ghost’s “I’m Like Money” is unapologetic
Your Future Ghost is back baby! The band made up of Kate Voegele and Michael Grubbs have put out another stellar single and this time with a music video to boot. “I’m Like Money” is the latest release and is described as a fearless self-love banger, which it proves to be.
From the first note, “I’m Like Money” transports listeners into a space of confidence and empowerment, with the important message of inner-self worth. Kate Voegele of the band confides, “In one sense, it’s a song about celebrating who you are and knowing you’re a badass, but also being sick of people trying to get a piece of you or tell you who to be. I’ve experienced this so often as a woman in the music and entertainment industry, where people have a very specific idea of who they want you to be and how to mold and shape you into that, but I think this is something everyone experiences in some sense. This song is about taking the power back, knowing your worth and what you bring to the table, and not being afraid to say, “hey, don’t f*cking touch me” when that’s called for.” Highlights of the song include exhilarating guitars, soaring vocals and thrilling synthesizers. The anthemic melodies and pulse-pounding production is absolute perfection. The music video is described as a mini horror movie and it is a must watch.
Your Future Ghost was formed by friends Kate and Michael who began collaborating over zoom during the pandemic. After finding a dynamic musical and creative partnership, the twosome began writing music and producing in Austin, Texas. The band uses their music for good, Michael shares “I would like to encourage folks to accept themselves. Which isn’t easy. I’m like this sadboy emo dude and Kate is this singer-songwriter pop star, and together we’re making this dirty indie album because that’s who we’ve always really been inside.”
