Dante Elephante, recently released their new single “Call Me (on the phone)” today, produced by Jonathan Rado of Foxygen (The Lemon Twigs, Whitney).

“The song is about my first 6 months being single after a 3-year relationship,” shares Ruben Zarate, frontman and founder of Dante Elephante. “The verses are positive about going out and having a good time. Then, when I was writing the song, my ex called me while I was sitting on the piano just to “talk.” It was a pretty average talk. She rambles about how she’s been since the break up and I gave short responses on how I’ve been. We hang up, I sit at the piano again, and then the first thing that came out of my mouth was “call me on the phone / cause you know what it does / it says, I have to be someone I’m not”.”

Dante Elephante announced dates for an upcoming tour co-headlining with Sego in March.
