Illinois pop punk heroes Wilmette have released “Playing Dead,” the first single off the soon-to-be-announced full-length, due out later this year. Stream “Playing Dead” on DSPs: https://orcd.co/playingdead. A video for the track (directed by Alex Zarek) is streaming here: https://youtu.be/0GzS3HvzX4k. Vocalist Aaron Hailey says, “After a long break from writing, “Playing Dead” was the first song we wrote together in over a year since our previous release. Much of the song came together in the studio, with the help of our producer Seth Henderson at ABG.” +++++ Hailing from the Chicago suburbs, Wilmette combines pop-punk and hardcore with a fresh style that relies on pop hooks, honest lyrics, and strong musicianship. The band’s emphatic debut EP “Anxious Body” was released in 2019 to much acclaim. |
