FlecHaus release their fourth new single "Lie To Me" on Friday, September 8. The Austin-based quintet are: Megan Flechaus, lead vocals/rhythm guitar; Kenzie Slottow, flute; Dominick Chaillot, bass; Nathan Smith, drums; and Sara Louise, backing vocals. On "Lie To Me," the band is joined by Benjamin Levy on fiddle, who substitutes for flutist Kenzie Slottow.

The band's second single "What We've Got" just won two L.A. Music Critic Awards: "Best Single-Group" and "Fan Favorite". "An amazing artist primed to burst onto the indie music scene" (INDIE VOICE BLOG). "Megan Flechaus has a clear country voice that rises over a cool shuffle beat" (PROFESSOR JOHNNY P'S BLOGSPOT). "FlecHaus is changing the way music should be heard, from a place of tender honesty" (INDIE PULSE MUSIC).

Lie To Me, explains Megan, "is about the compassionate lying that one does to flatter a lover throughout a long relationship. It's also inspired by the Shakespeare Sonnet CxxVIII":

When my love swears that she is made of truth,
I do believe her, though I know she lies,
That she might think me some untutored youth,
Unlearnèd in the world's false subtleties.
Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young,
Although she knows my days are past the best,
Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue:
On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed.
But wherefore says she not she is unjust?
And wherefore say not I that I am old?
Oh, love's best habit is in seeming trust,
And age in love loves not to have years told.
Therefore I lie with her and she with me,
And in our faults by lies we flattered be.

As with FlecHaus' first three singles, Lie To Me is written by Megan Flechaus, arranged and performed by FlecHaus, recorded at The Compound, mastered by Chris Kress, and recorded, mixed, and produced by Benjamin Alan Levy. It's available on CD Baby.
