After announcing her announcing her debut album, Survival In Motion in June, Taylor Acorn is back with a taste of the LP with “People Watching.” Preceded by previous singles “High Horse,” “Greener,” and “Survival In Motion,” the full album is set to drop on September 13.

Acorn says, “I’ll never forget the day that we wrote ‘People Watching,’ and after Emma [Lynn White] and I got the demo back we drove around for hours listening to it on repeat in tears (happy tears of course!).”

She continues, “I think it truly encapsulates being unapologetically in love and wearing it proudly no matter who you are. I’d also be lying if it wasn’t slightly inspired by Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce and the hours of videos I’ve watched of them falling in love. I’m obsessed with them what can I say!”

To showcase love in its many forms, the artist used fan-submitted clips of weddings, dates, family hangs, pups, and more. Check out the euphoric, love-centered “People Watching” music video below.

Ahead of the release of Survival In Motion, Acorn will be headlining a handful of shows and touring alongside Boys Like Girls, supporting Dashboard Confessional this fall. You can check out her full touring schedule for 2024 below and purchase tickets here.
