Or, like, the pulsating might of The Thermals matched with the dynamo pop of Swearin’. Pick your favorite crunchy power-pop band and The Dreaded Laramie probably have something in common. Genuinely rivals the royalty of the genre.”- _**_The Alternative_** Nashville indie power-pop femmecore band **The Dreaded Laramie** has released a new single + video titled “Tell Me” off their upcoming sophomore EP “Everything A Girl Could Ask” out on May 13th on **Wiretap Records / Sell The Heart Records / Engineer Records**. **Stream the new single “Tell Me” [HERE](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12773.1.90ee73f39bb15c66a9a1d9c044a0a4d1)**. **Watch the music video here: [https://youtu.be/W7b0gaMb67U](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12774.1.ed1ce03777ab79a75e279fbaa7017a14).** The Dreaded Laramie - "Tell Me" (Official Music Video) [⌊The Dreaded Laramie - "Tell Me" (Official Music Video)⌉⌊The Dreaded Laramie - "Tell Me" (Official Music Video)⌉ Watch this video on YouTube Video directed by Wil Kelly (@wil_kellyy) Vocalist/guitarist MC Cunningham says, _“Tell Me” is a song about losing your sense of self and trying to get it back. In my experience as both a musician and an academic, I have found that there is a terrifying sense of helplessness in trying to figure out who I am and what is unique about me, and, when people tell me I’m doing it wrong, it’s easy to take that really seriously. This song is about confronting that helplessness and choosing to turn to my closest support network of family and friends to remind me of who I am at my core.”_ ![Screen Shot 2022-03-23 at 9.01.35 AM](https://i0.wp.com/cascade.madmimi.com/promotion_images/ 3074/1636/original/Screen_Shot_2022-03-23_at_9.01.35_AM.png?resize=344%2C345&ssl =1) _Photo: Maris Souza (@notfakemaris)_ _Styled by f r a u (@wowitsfrau)_ This band of best buds first got ears buzzing with their 2019 debut ‘The Dreaded LaramiE.P.,’ produced by Adam Meisterhans of West Virginia riff merchants **Rozwell Kid**. The record was hailed by **The Alternative** as “[rivalling] the royalty of the genre”, while Music City tastemakers **Lightning 100** branded them as a “must listen”, not to mention the radio rotation from the Rocky Mountains to the British Isles. The Dreaded Laramie join a growing chorus of young Southern bands challenging what it is to be normal. Bassist Drew Swisher explains “normalcy defines our dreams and what we think is possible. But everybody’s weird, we just try desperately to hide it.” In their songs, The Dreaded Laramie celebrate living authentically with vocalist/ guitarist MC Cunningham delivering thoughtful dispatches on gender expectations, insecurity, and a healthy portion of all-consuming crushes. Vitally, this is a band for whom having an emotional heart-to-heart and having fun are not at odds with each other. Their emotive reflections are served up drenched in shimmering sweet melodies, a frankly decadent dose of harmonized guitar interplay, and a power-punching rhythm section. These are songs as tender as they are stridently hook-laden, songs as crushingly honest as they are irrepressibly danceable. The Dreaded Laramie’s sophomore EP “Everything A Girl Could Ask” will be released via **Wiretap Records, Sell The Heart Records and Engineer Records** on May 13th on 7” picture disc vinyl and digital. “Everything A Girl Could Ask” was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Justin Francis, produced by Adam Meisterhans, and written by The Dreaded Laramie and Adam Meisterhans. **Upcoming shows:** Apr 1 Nashville, TN The East Room Apr 8 Nashville, TN DRKMTTR Apr 9 Lexington, KY Al’s Bar of Lexington Apr 21 Cincinnati, OH The Mockbee Apr 22 Huntington, WV The Loud Apr 23 Philadelphia, PA Traitor Joe’s May 13 Louisville, KY Magbar May 14 Columbus, OH Unknown venue Jun 18 Little Rock, AR White Water Tavern **Facebook:**[https://www.facebook.com/thedreadedlaramieband](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12775.1.5c0355f0d2db253bc397bb541c7d66ef) ** Instagram:**[https://www.instagram.com/thedreadedlaramieband](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12776.1.ccb1b625d5ee3b4f4eb39eb97b15d90a)** Twitter:**[https://twitter.com/thedreadedlarry](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12777.1.6e16aa531db5b30058f1bb030db31046) ![Screen Shot 2020-06-08 at 6.15.27 PM](https://i0.wp.com/cascade.madmimi.com/promotion_images/ 1653/5933/original/Screen_Shot_2020-06-08_at_6.15.27_PM.png?w=1290&ssl=1) [**Wiretap Records**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12779.1.708de5b35df4c377dbd037f97111fe2a) [**www.instagram.com/wiretaprecords**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12780.1.b59dc043251dfb741599179cdd378748) [**www.facebook.com/wiretaprecords**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12781.1.8ae19ac0b459852dd8a744ebf343f817) ![0026520767 10](https://i0.wp.com/cascade.madmimi.com/promotion_images/3074/2315/ original/0026520767_10.jpeg?w=1290&ssl=1) [**Sell The Heart Records**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12782.1.282b65228343483345cc6d1185400c78) [**www.instagram.com/selltheheartrecords**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12783.1.8d9c08bb390fd2963405c75c2c1ca8f8) [**www.facebook.com/selltheheart**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12784.1.2d01114f10238f743918771543240506) ![65aad7 5d0ff0f3b8c746e3b693446e797caa6b mv2](https://i0.wp.com/cascade.madmimi. com/promotion_images/3074/2305/original/65aad7_5d0ff0f3b8c746e3b693446e797caa6b_mv2. jpeg?w=1290&ssl=1) **[Engineer Records](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12785.1.6ecc93fadd10fbd9ce3c3130130adeb0)** [**www.facebook.com/engineerrecords**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12786.1.1a62b60960bb3a0aced29b3fcba684a4) [**www.instagram.com/engrecsguy**](https://email.cloud.secureclick.net/c/6813?id=4826634.12787.1.aff77bde0edab2d5c16ffc36643ecf29) ### Share this: * [ Facebook ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=facebook) * [ X ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=x) * [ Email ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Power%20Pop%204-Piece%20THE%20DREADED%20LARAMIE%20Releases%20New%20Single%20%2B%20Video%20%22Tell%20Me%22&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nyrdcast.com%2Fpower-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me%2F&share=email) * [ LinkedIn ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=linkedin) * [ Mastodon ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=mastodon) * [ Nextdoor ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=nextdoor) * [ Pinterest ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=pinterest) * [ Reddit ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=reddit) * [ Tumblr ](https://www.nyrdcast.com/power-pop-4-piece-the-dreaded-laramie-releases-new-single-video-tell-me/?share=tumblr) ### Like this: Like Loading… ### _Related_
