Chicago ska-punks Beat the Smart Kids have released their first new music in almost two-and-a-half years with the new single “Bad Influencer.” The full-bodied song has some big band sound and is a rousing tune for everyone. It follows their 2023 sophomore LP Hot Death.
The band drops the single right before they head down to The Fest next week, where they’ll be performing on 25 Oct at Depot Village.
Listen below, and find more BtSK at their Bandcamp or Spotify.
