Stream: “Always Falling in Love” – Yam Haus ft. Sydney Quiseng

Falling in love can feel like stepping onto the roof of the world.

Suddenly everything is brighter, closer, charged with possibility, like your heart has outgrown its borders and you’re walking around lit up from the inside. It’s intoxicating and exhilarating, a feeling that turns ordinary moments into monumental memories, and makes simply being with your special person feel miraculous. Yam Haus’ “Always Falling in Love” lives inside that sensation, capturing not just the rush of connection, but the way love keeps renewing itself over time – deepening, softening, and somehow growing even more overwhelming the longer it lasts. This is not the flash of first love, but the rarer marvel of devotion that continues to bloom, where intimacy makes life feel bigger, warmer, and more meaningful with every return.

Featuring singer/songwriter Sydney Quiseng, “Always Falling in Love” is ultimately a song about longevity as wonder – about the radical beauty of staying open to someone even after time has stripped away novelty and replaced it with knowledge. Yam Haus and Quiseng frame love not as a peak you summit once, but as a feeling you choose to re-enter, again and again, through attention, tenderness, and care. In doing so, they elevate commitment into an expansive and electric experience, reminding us that the deepest romance isn’t found in the initial spark, but in the decision to keep the flame alive – to keep falling with the same person, year after year.

That devotion is articulated immediately, in lyrics that ground the song’s emotional scope in everyday acts of care and presence:

If you’re the rollercoaster
I’m on board
And if you’re lost at sea
I’ll be the lighthouse on the shore
Give me your dirty laundry
Put it all on the line
Old fashioned love you know
It’s getting pretty hard to find

I like the way you memorized my number
I like the way that we can talk about nothing at all
I love the way you fall asleep on my shoulder
I love the way it always feels like we’re falling in love

Released in October 2025 as a standalone single via Big Loud Rock, and arriving amid the band’s ongoing run of increasingly reflective, heart-forward releases, “Always Falling in Love” pairs Minneapolis indie rock trio Yam Haus with singer/songwriter Sydney Quiseng in a collaboration that feels both effortless and emotionally exacting. It’s Yam Haus’ first-ever feature, and it arrives not as a left turn, but as a natural extension of a band that’s spent the past few years learning how to say exactly what they mean – and say it out loud.

Longtime Atwood readers will recognize Yam Haus – Lars Pruitt, Zach Beinlich, and Jake Felstow – as a group in motion. When we caught up with frontman Lars Pruitt in 2023 for their Stupid and Famous EP, the band was wrestling openly with identity, pressure, contradiction, and survival – “I finally quit, but I can’t give up, and I’m empty but I’m full up to the brim, with little contradictions…” was both a lyric and a mission statement. That record marked a turning point, trading pop instincts for guitar-driven grit and emotional candor, and ushering in an era defined by honesty over artifice. Since then, singles like “Arrest Myself,” “Dollar Store Mansion,” and “Green Lights” have traced a band increasingly comfortable in vulnerability – especially when it comes to love.

“I gave myself permission with ‘Arrest Myself’ to really just lean into a love song,” Pruitt recently shared. “That first feeling of falling in love, when it dawns on you that you’re locking your heart away with somebody else.” In many ways, that moment marked a quiet but meaningful shift for the band – a turning toward emotional clarity, sincerity, and a willingness to say the thing plainly, without armor or irony. “Always Falling In Love” feels like the long view of that same impulse – what happens after the lock clicks, after the years stack up, after love becomes less about the fall and more about the flight.

That perspective is sharpened beautifully by Sydney Quiseng, whose own journey has been one of rediscovery and self-trust. Best known as the voice behind Echosmith, Quiseng stepped fully into her solo identity last year with her debut EP PHASES, a reflective, soul-baring collection rooted in growth, doubt, and renewal. When we spoke with her, she described learning to embrace change rather than fear it – a philosophy that echoes powerfully through this new collaboration.

And if you’re going crazy
I’ll go too
If you’re not navigating
I’ll find my way to you
I’ll take shelter in your arms
When I’m afraid
And when I lose myself
I’ll need to hear you say

I like the way you memorized my number
I like the way that we can talk about nothing at all
I love the way you fall asleep on my shoulder
I love the way it always feels like we’re falling in love

Contextualizing that moment, Quiseng recalls how naturally the song came together: “Back in January, I met Yam Haus when we performed on The Rock Boat (as Echosmith) and I became an instant fan,” Quiseng shares. “We wrote this song on a rainy day in LA a few months later. My husband and I have been together for 10 years and it truly feels like we’re always falling in love. When you find ‘the one,’ you get to know new sides of your significant other through the years and fall in love over and over again. This song captures that feeling in such a sweet way.”

That sweetness never tips into sentimentality because the song earns it – musically, lyrically, and emotionally. Pruitt explains that the band looked to Bruce Springsteen’s “Secret Garden” and Bleachers’ “Me Before You” as touchstones, “chasing the drum sounds and warm analogue synth foundation.” You can hear it in the way the track breathes: Steady, glowing percussion; synths that hum like a heartbeat; guitars that shimmer without overwhelming. The arrangement is intimate but expansive, built to swell without rushing, to lift without losing its grounding.

“Personally and lyrically, it’s from a place of sincere and sappy love that both Syd and myself feel in our own marriages,” Pruitt says. “We both just gave ourselves permission to say it right on the nose. We truly just love love and are very happy in our respective relationships. And sometimes that’s all you have to say!”

That permission is the song’s greatest strength. There’s no irony here, no hedging, no apology for tenderness. Lines like “I like the way you memorized my number / I like the way that we can talk about nothing at all” find their power in specificity – the small, unglamorous details that make up a life shared. When Quiseng and Pruitt trade lines, their voices intertwine with a natural ease, never competing, always meeting in the middle.

Don’t make me wonder
Have I lost my sanity?
I’m going under and
There ain’t no saving me

I hear the thunder
Of the life we’re gonna lead
Who knows what we’re gonna see
Let it come down to you and me

The bridge hits with a quiet, almost cinematic intensity – “I hear the thunder / Of the life we’re gonna lead” – before the chorus returns, reaffirmed, resolute, and radiant. It’s the sound of love not as a lightning strike, but as weather: powerful, sustaining, and ever-present.

Reflecting on their collaboration, Pruitt adds, “We loved our creative partnership with Sydney, and we can really relate to the topic from our long-term relationships. It’s a beautiful, on-the-nose, sentimental love song.” Quiseng echoes that joy: “On a rare rainy day in LA, we wrote a song about finding someone who makes you feel like you’re falling in love over and over again, even years into the relationship… I’m so happy with how this duet turned out, and I’m beyond excited to share it with the world.”

“Always Falling In Love” feels like a culmination – of Yam Haus’ journey toward clarity and confidence, of Quiseng’s embrace of her own voice, and of two artists unafraid to celebrate stability in a world obsessed with chaos.

If the opening rush of falling in love feels like stepping onto the roof of the world, “Always Falling in Love” is what it sounds like to realize you’re already in the air – steady, weightless, and choosing to stay there together. It’s bold in its softness, grand in its intimacy, and deeply human in its message. It’s the kind of song you return to not for answers, but to feel it all again – proof that real love doesn’t fade, it deepens.

I like the way you memorized my number
I like the way that we can talk about nothing at all
I love the way you fall asleep on my shoulder
I love the way it always feels like we’re falling in love

In a musical landscape that often treats love as either a fleeting spark or a catastrophic collapse, Yam Haus and Sydney Quiseng offer something far more sustaining: a song about staying, about growing, about waking up every day and choosing the same person with fresh eyes and an open heart. If love is a lifelong motion, “Always Falling In Love” captures it mid-flight – glowing, grounded, and gloriously alive.
