Power pop band Tiny Stills have released their brand new music video for “La La” today! “La La” is the latest from the band’s sophomore album, Laughing Into the Void, which is set to be released on June 1st, 2018.
Laughing Into the Void is full of brutal honesty, crunchy guitars, and catchy melodies that help you remember that even the worst days have a silver lining: at least you’re not alone. For more information, or to pre-order Laughing Into the Void, please visit: www.tinystills.com.
On the new track, front-woman Kailynn West shares: “You can’t please everybody, and in the digital world sometimes criticism can come from all angles, 24/7. I think it’s important to look out for yourself and tune out the rest of the world, which was the main inspiration behind the song ‘La La.’ It also seemed fitting since we live in LA and there can be a lot of emphasis on superficial things here. Sometimes you need a reminder that it’s ok to just be yourself.“
Tiny Stills is a power pop band from Los Angeles influenced by Courtney Barnett, That Dog, and 90s/00s rock. Their first album, Falling is like Flying was released in 2014 and was a direct response to the isolation and anxiety that comes from life changing events after front-person and founding member Kailynn West was held up at gunpoint. It’s upbeat and pop-y melodies were born from a desire to make something that felt and sounded nothing like the she felt at the time – happy. Since then, West has been the nucleus of the project with a rotating cast of band members, but most recent lineup includes Harry Foster (bass), Zach Comtois(guitar), and Tony Thaxton (drums).
After a last-minute lineup change left an opening on a national tour with Bayside’s Anthony Raneri and A.W. in 2015, West stepped in at the last minute to complete the tour as Tiny Stills. She sold thank you cards with download links as merchandise after selling out of physical copies of the first record; from there, the project hit the ground running.
Tiny Stills will release their highly anticipated sophomore album, Laughing Into the Void, on June 1st, 2018. They’ll be celebrating with a hometown album release show on May 31st at The Hi Hat in Los Angeles. For a full list of upcoming tour dates, please see below or visit www.tinystills.com.
