Breakout pop artist, Nessa Barrett has returned with her explosive new single, “BANG BANG!” today via Warner Records. Boasting a pulse-pounding beat and an insidious bassline, the punk-infused anthem showcases Barrett’s razor-sharp lyrics and knack for unforgettable hooks. It’s the newcomer’s first release since dropping the extended edition of her debut album young forever in late 2022.
“The song was written about my borderline personality rage,” Barrett says of “BANG BANG!” “There’s times where I just get so mad that I think about the craziest things I want to do in that moment, I feel like everyone deep down has intrusive thoughts even though they don’t want to admit it.” That sense of fury is perfectly captured in the grainy, black-and-white video which finds the pop artist embracing her crazy as she poses for a mugshot. Watch it now below.
“BANG BANG!” is sure to be a highlight of Barrett’s first-ever headlining tour of North America, which kicks off in Phoenix, AZ on February 22, followed by stops in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Boston, New York, and Chicago. Tickets can be found HERE.
