Santa Cuz, California band Scowl has announced their signing with Dead Oceans (Phoebe Bridgers, Japanese Breakfast), along with the news, the band have shared a new song entitled “Special” along with a video. “Special.” Produced by Grammy-nominated Will Yip (who also worked on the band’s EP Psychic Dance Routine) and mixed by Rich Costey (Fiona Apple, Deftones, Vampire Weekend).

Kat Moss shares her thoughts on “Special”:

“Originally Malachi sent in the demo while we were touring the UK. Cole added his flare on drums, Bailey directed the bridge, and finally Mikey cooked up his leads. “Special” is a kamikaze. The lyrics are about threatening the audience by asking “what do you really want?”in clear desperation to answer my own question “What do I really want?” But the answer is simple, I want to feel alive.”

Scowl has toured the globe with Destroy Boys, The Bronx, Militarie Gun, Show Me The Body, Zulu, Touche Amore, A Day To Remember, Speed, Sunami and many more, along with festival appearances at Coachella, Reading & Leeds, No Values, Outbreak, Primavera, and Sick New World to name a few. The band—Malachi Greene (guitar), Bailey Lupo (bass), Cole Gilbert (drums), Mikey Bifolco (guitar), and Kat Moss (vocals), released their debut album How Flowers Grow, followed up by 2023’s Psychic Dance Routine.
