37 HOUSES – “JEALOUS LOVE (LIVE)”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE MUSIC PREMIERE
San Francisco indie-punk band 37 Houses announce the forthcoming Live in Chicago EP, sharing the lead track, “Jealous Love” today. The recording is a vamped up, supercharged version of the lead single from the band’s 2024 self-titled debut album. It gives the song an entirely new driving force and energy. Live in Chicago was recorded in July of this year on the band’s Midwestern tour at one of their most incendiary performances, captured at Reggie’s in the Windy City.
The band released their sophomore full length When and How it Happened in May earlier this year. Read on for more about that album.
37 Houses has always been a journal of lead singer Erin Sydney and guitarist Jeremy Rosenblum’s marriage. Started as a way to process going into lockdown four months after getting married, the music has become a running expression of the love and pain they experience together. When and How it Happened is the next chapter in that story: written over 18 months about the process of learning to be, and not be, polyamorous in a developing marriage.
The songs were written as the events transpired and they capture the raw emotions of deeply personal moments. Neither person knew how this would end while it was being written. “Helium”, about a few days spent with a girlfriend, and a few months dealing with the feelings it created, captures that angst and grief. Album opener “Shadow Puppets” sings an apology, an acknowledgement, and a resignation of hope, while maintaining the fierce undercurrent of unconditional love. Acoustic tracks “Unloveable” and “Love Song” contrast each other; one song about the darkest moments, and the other an expression of neverending love to hold onto when things feel overwhelming. This album also represents the first time Erin Sydney composed songs on the album, with “Event Horizon” and “Only a Smile Remains” giving voice to her struggle, her pain, and her ability to grow through it all.
When it came time to record, the band decided it needed to be as raw and urgent as the songwriting. Renting a house in the mountains of Colorado, they set up the band live and recorded all the instrument tracks in just 4 days. The recording captures exactly what happened between the band members in a whirlwind of creative expression. It is a loving tribute to the early days of rock and roll, favoring cranked amps and feel over perfectly placed hits and polished layers. And because 37 Houses is always a product of the house Erin and Jeremy share, the vocals and acoustic tracks were once again recorded in their bedroom.
This is a record about a discreet moment and how you face it. This is a record capturing a discrete moment in the history of the band. This is When and How it Happened.
When and How It Happened is available on Limited Edition LP and digital, released on May 29th, 2026. Live In Chicago EP will be available digitally on November 20, 2026.
