Southern California indie-poppers HUNNY have made their long-awaited return with new single ‘Sports with Strangers’.
Since their fantastic debut EP ‘Pain / Ache / Loving’, the quartet have grown to become an indie powerhouse.
Now with their first record in three years following HUNNY’s 2019 debut album Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. the band have self-produced the pop-rock track which has some mid-00s indie sounds like that of Bloc Party.
“We were inspired by the isolation of the last year but rather than cement it in time by literally writing of the current situation, we transposed the feeling to past real situations in which we felt the same way,” says the band of the self-produced track. “Rather than write about the loneliness that comes from being physically separated we were reminded of the distance that comes from spending time in a crowd that couldn’t be further intellectually and emotionally from your Perspective.”
HUNNY is Jason Yarger (vocals), Jake Goldstein (guitar), Kevin Grimmett (bass, keyboards), and Joey Anderson (drums).
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. is the perfect mix of heavy-hearted lyrics, bright-and-shiny melodies, lovesick confession, and addictively dancey rhythms. Produced by Grammy Award-winner Carlos de la Garza (Cherry Glazerr, Paramore), the debut record came to life in November 2018 during the Woolsey Fire and Camp Fire that devastated 96,949 acres of land in Southern California.
