The Wallows are back! The band consisting of Dylan Minnette, Cole Preston and Braeden Lemasters released their brand new single Calle “Are You Bored Yet?” which features singer and songwriter Clairo.
The song is about a couple that is having communication problems. The song opens with, “what’s wrong? / You’ve been asking, but I don’t have an answer.” “If you could tell me how you’re feeling,” Clairo retorts, “Maybe we’d get through this undefeated.” Lies and misdirections continue to mount. While the couple appears to stumble forward, the instrumental remains brisk and cheerful. The Wallows’ rhythm section provides a stolid backbeat, and a keyboard plays perky lines.
The music video shows a blender exploding, a man playing pool with a golf club and a disco ball crashing during a strange, dreamy trip to a karaoke bar, sounds like a fun music video to watch!
“Are You Bored Yet?” will be a part of Nothing Happens, due out March 22nd. The Wallows are also going on tour! Check out the track list and tour dates below!
