Triple Crown

Triple Crown is a New York-based rock music record label that was created in 1997. With a focus on the alternative and indie rock genres, Triple Crown has become known for its diverse roster of talented artists and performers.

Since its inception, Triple Crown has been dedicated to supporting and promoting emerging talent in the music industry. The label has worked with some of the most influential bands and musicians in the scene, helping them gain recognition and reach new audiences.

With a commitment to quality and artistic integrity, Triple Crown continues to release groundbreaking albums that push boundaries and defy expectations. Whether it's *Brand New*'s emotionally charged lyrics or *Caspian*'s atmospheric soundscapes, each artist on the label brings something unique to the table.

The night before an L.A. recording session, Kississippi’s Zoe Reynolds spotted a flashy billboard ad for an auto repair shop; “Get In Tune,” it read, an imperative that felt like a call to connect and a call to get better. It took her mind to Bruce Springsteen’s iconic garage-set video for “I’m On Fire,” and almost immediately a new song began to take hold. With bubbly synth pads, atmospheric guitar swells, stacked harmonies and drop-out-ramp up drum beats, “We’re So In Tune'' captures the synchronous excitement of new relationship energy in vibrant waves of sound, crashing and receding like an uncontainable impulse. “A couple people have commented on how it’s NOT in tune,” Reynolds jokingly remarks, citing the Lorde-ian, shout-along gang vocals behind the chorus. “But it doesn’t have to be; I wasn’t in tune with that person, either.” 

The song serves as the bar-raising first song on Mood Ring, Reynold’s second full length as Kississippi and first for Triple Crown Records. Like its opening track, the album is full of her trademark talent at channeling deadpan emotional observation into poignant musical metaphors. Kississippi comfortably filters pop grandeur, emo’s deliberate rawness, and Nashville’s studio largeness through a lens of punk camaraderie. Just like the album’s title suggests, Reynolds writes through a spectrum of shifting emotions: elation blending into insecurity and back around into gorgeous awe.
