Alt/rock’s latest rising sensation Letdown. has returned with another irresistibly catchy new single, “Raincoat.”
“Raincoat” is the latest offering from his highly-anticipated debut album, which is set to be released later this year via Big Loud Rock. Introduced by a simple percussive beat and the electric twang of a plucked guitar,“Raincoat” storms onto the scene as an anthemic storytelling of roller coaster relationships. It slowly picks up momentum before kicking fully into its anthemic chorus, not unlike something Weezer would unleash onto the world.
When asked about the inspiration behind the song, Letdown. revealed that it explores“the bittersweet dance of two individuals trapped in a relationship they both yearn to escape. ‘Raincoat’ encapsulates the torment of a relationship riddled with apologies yet devoid of solutions, exploring the intricate dynamics of remaining in a situation neither party truly enjoys. It vividly portrays the struggles and contradictions inherent in toxic relationships.”
Listen to “Raincoat” below.
“Raincoat” follows the success of Letdown.’s last single, “Hate Myself,” which is currently making waves on Alternative Radio as the #1 Most Added Track its first week at the format and climbing to #31 on the Mediabase Alternative chart where it currently sits. This is his second impressive showing at radio with earlier hit, “Crying In The Shower,” peaking inside the Top 20 at U.S. Alternative Radio.
Letdown. expanded his global audience significantly last year through tours across Europe and the U.S., along with captivating performances at festivals such as Summerfest, Louder Than Life, and Aftershock. Letdown. will be hitting the road this summer performing on the Idobi Radio Summer School tour alongside Stand Atlantic, Magnolia Park, The Home Team, Scene Queen, and Honey Revenge.
