“Boulder” by The Dutch Kills

The Dutch Kills have shared new single “Boulder.” The New York City band’s single is accompanied by new video, which the band recently screened as part of a special video release show at Mercury Lounge in NYC. “Boulder” is the lead single off the band’s forthcoming EP.

The band comment on the track:

“I hate stubborn people. I hate being stuck. This song is about dating someone who is relentlessly both stubborn and stuck, and somehow I’m the person that needs to work on myself. Blow yourself!

The bridge to me feels like a moment of clarity. A little should I stay or should I go now. Sisyphus would have loved this.

This song is about a person dating a Boulder of a person. Confident, seemingly strong, but an immovable force that can only crush the people around it.”

The Dutch Kills are fronted by Julia Von Dutch on vocals and guitar, with Alec Berry on lead guitar, Maxine McCormick on bass, and Heather Jensen on drums, the Brooklyn quartet are inspired by ’90s grunge, punk, and rock. Since forming in 2023, they’ve sold out Union Pool, packed the Bowery Ballroom, and have played SXSW twice. The band have also played shows with Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers, The Frights, Starcleaner Reunion, and more. Their debut EP, The Rot, was produced by Aleksi Godard and Gordon Raphael and recorded at The Hit Factory and Electric Lady Studios. With new music looming at the end of ’26.
