Ten Kills the Pack shares the new video for recent single, “girl of my dreams”. “I think it’s the cutest video I’ve ever made,” says Sean Sroka. “I was happy to be able to make and direct something of my own with the same spirit of making the song, just going out and doing it for yourself. That’s my puppy Fenne and I think she has a bright future in acting, but I’ll let her decide when she gets older.” Ten Kills the Pack’s latest release Thank You for Trying, was co-produced with Marcus Paquin (Weather Station, The National).

“girl of my dreams” is Ten Kills the Pack’s first independent single since parting ways with his record label in early 2024 and is leaning further back into a very familiar yet still disorientating independent musical landscape. To this, Sroka mentions “It does feel like I’ve never left this part of my musical lifestyle. And it’s beautiful to be able to create and release as you please. If the song feels like autumn, let’s have it out then.”

Working with artist Jay Som aka Melina Duterte (Boy Genius, Fenne Lily) mixing the track, and previous collaborator and drummer Griffin Goldsmith of Dawes. The new self produced release casts a light on the personal exercise and growth of becoming less precious and following your momentary artistic intuitions. “I sent what is now the chorus of this song as a little self deleting voice message jingle to my partner who was touring overseas at the time; trying to help count down the days we had away. From there it just kept turning in my head, so I turned off the tv and wrote it that night”.

In addition to his his on music, Sroka also moonlights as a songwriter with Nashville publishers and beloved Canadian acts like Aysanabee, with a song that earned Sroka’s first JUNO Award win in 2024 under the songwriting category. The nuances of Ten Kills the Pack’s efforts can also be explored in the production of Hannah Georgas’s 2023 album I’d Be Lying if I Said I Didn’t Care.
