Los Angeles via New York duo Fake Dad is quickly becoming one of the most exciting bands on the rise. Their latest single is called “Crybaby” and it is a memorable indie rock anthem. The song follows their popular EP Yerba Mala that was released last year which included the hit single “So Dramatic!”.
“Crybaby” takes listeners on a thrilling ride complete with delicious guitars, pounding drums and feverish bass. A dance-inducing chorus with bewitching vocals are also hallmarks of the single. “Crybaby” details the crazy obsession people have with wanting to be famous and recognizable, particularly on social media. The song shows how frivolous this can be and how insanely hyper individualized our society has become. The band shares, “It’s about the toxic cycle of success/attention for a whole generation who see ourselves as temporarily disgraced superstars.”
Fake Dad exploded onto the scene with their EP Yerba Mala which picked up notable press and editorial playlists. Their music has touched listeners all around the world and the band aims to use their platform for good, being a source of comfort for their listeners. “Crybaby” is yet another indie hit from Fake Dad.
