American project girlpuppy have shared new single ‘Champ’.
The band is led by Atlanta, GA songwriter Becca Harvey, blending aspects of grunge and garage rock with something more pop-adjacent. Open and melodic, her work is shot through with purpose, accented by some ace lyrical insight.
Captured Tracks – one of our favourite labels for over a decade now – have signed girlpuppy, and their first release as part of the roster is out now.
‘Champ’ is a punchy return, dynamic while also tapping into their live energy; produced by Alex Farrar (Wednesday, MJ Lenderman, Indigo De Souza, Snail Mail, Waxahatchee), it’s dubbed as the “older sister” to previous fan-favourite ‘Wish’.
She comments…
“‘It’s happening again, you don’t want to be my friend’ is about once again going through a random friend breakup and never knowing why. It’s basically a plea that no matter how much this friend ignores me and shows me that they don’t want me in their life, I still try because I loved our friendship.”
There’s also a new video for ‘Champ’ out now, directed by BenniShumlin and Augie Voss – featuring Becca Harvey in a boxing match.
