Beach Bunny have announced details of their second album Emotional Creature out 22nd July on Mom+Pop Music. The follow up to the ace viral long player Honeymoon.
To accompany the news, the Chicago quartet have also shared their bouncy hook laden, life affirming new single ‘Fire Escape.’ The song was preceded by 2021’s blissful ‘Oxygen,’ which features on the forthcoming album.
On the release, Trifilio says, “We are always changing, growing, and adapting – it’s a deeply ingrained part of the human experience. We strive to be stronger, trust we’ll grow smarter, and spend most of our lives reaching for comfort and happiness. Sometimes, life is stagnant, sometimes, life is difficult – but the wonderful part of being human is that we evolve and make the bleak moments beautiful – we find new ways to survive. Humans are emotional creatures and I wanted to capture that with this album in order to show how complex, sometimes tragic, and mostly wonderful the human experience can be.”
“Emotional Creature was written immediately prior to and during the pandemic and produced by pop-punk go-to Sean O’Keefe (Fall Out Boy, Motion City Soundtrack) at Chicago’s Shirk Studios. Finding herself back at her parents’ home in spring of 2020 following the SOLD OUT tour surrounding the band’s acclaimed debut Honeymoon, Trifilio coped with her new reality by retreating into sci-fi stories and her always-active imagination. She envisioned new places to travel in her mind, thus dreaming up big, bombastic Y2K-esque pop sounds to construct the album and its galaxial imagery.”
This April, the band will embark on a 35+ date North American and European tour playing the largest rooms of their career. The band will also make their Coachella and Primavera Sound debuts, among other festival stops. Followed by a UK and European tour in the Autumn and winter.
