UNVEILS ANXIETY-FUELED LOVE SONG “HEART ATTACK”

“BUTTERFLIES” EP OUT JULY 15TH VIA ATONED MUSIC

LOS ANGELES, CA – May 20, 2022 – For years Danny Goo has been honing a pop-punk/sad-rap cocktail that’s now suddenly super-hot. Dropping on Atoned Music on July 15th, his sophomore EP “Butterflies” makes an ultra-authentic grab for mainstream ubiquity alongside the likes of Machine Gun Kelly, Travis Barker and Avril Lavigne.

In anticipation of his forthcoming EP, his best work yet, Goo has unveiled the music video for the Kevin Thrasher-produced single “Heart Attack” – his musical expression for romantic love. “Kevin Thrasher knows what’s hot right now since has has been working with the top artists in rock music recently,” asserts Danny Goo. “He brings a more modern sound to my music.”

“Heart Attack” explores the exhilaration and frustrations of Goo’s first secret love. “‘Heart Attack’ is a song about when I was still trying to get over my ex that I couldn’t even tell anyone about while we were dating,” explains Goo. “Every time I would see her in person or on social media, my heart would start beating faster because of the anxiety and thoughts racing in my head. I described it as a heart attack.”

Following a recent move with co-creator/producer JoJo Centineo from their native Dallas to Los Angeles and attracting heavy-hitter producer Kevin Thrasher (Travis Barker, Machine Gun Kelly, Avril Lavigne), Goo is perfectly poised for the next level – and beyond. “I’ve learned so much from moving out of my hometown,” Goo vows. “I have amazing scenery and tons of influence all around me. I’ve been able to collaborate with more people and the sessions are more challenging which forced me to apply myself to becoming a better writer. Overall, it made me a stronger person and a better musician because now I know what it takes.”

Goo’s trademark heart-worn Gen Z love songs are all the more impactful on “Butterflies” thanks to Thrasher’s guitar-oriented touch and collabs with Lil Lotus, Rich Zahnhiser (The Hippos), and Daniel Wonacott (Finch). It’s a lineup that reflects an inclusive, genre-blending sound that embraces emocore and emo rap, 2000s pop-punk, classic R&B melodies, and unashamed pop sensibilities, all enhanced with innate charisma and utterly here-and-now production.

“Butterflies” continues Goo’s vulnerable, confessional exploration of young love and loss. Distorted guitars and propulsive beats juxtaposed against auto-tuned melodicism and huge, optimistic hooks to create something both intimate and otherworldly, escapist yet super-relatable.​​
