Cry Baby Release 90s Pop Single 'Must Be Something'

Charleston based pop/R&B band Cry Baby have released their brand new single "Must Be Something" ahead of the release of their new EP Everything I Didn't Say - due out August 27, 2021. This 90's fused pop track brings a nostalgic sound into the modern age.

On the new single the band shares, "'Must Be Something' is a pumped up, 90's infused pop track synonymous with Cry Baby. The song is about calling out lovers who can't seem to make up their mind, highlighted by Jamie demanding "tell me is it true, do I mean something to you?" With an earworm hook and dazzling synths, 'Must Be Something' is catchy and full of energy."

Discussing their new EP, Cry Baby shares, "'Everything I Didn't Say' is a mixtape of the past two years for Cry Baby. With it being our first full release, we hoped to include a full range of songs that sound like the tapes we made growing up. We wanted a record that had a little something for everyone in it." The band continues,'Everything I Didn't Say' was made with a completely DIY approach. We were involved in every step of the project - shooting album covers, filming music videos, printing and designing shirts. When people listen to this record they are getting something truly home grown." Everything I Didn't Say is available to presave now here.

Cry Baby started in 2018 with the goal to try something different. Previously playing in various acts around Charleston, their current members all unknowingly met at the same local music festival performing as openers for Briston Maroney. Early on putting out our 80's driven dance anthem "Boyfriend", the band immediately started noticing the energy crowds started to show. With chaotic and upbeat shows, they began to harness a punk energy amidst their pop sound live. Taking this show on the road, the band began to travel around the southeast and midwest building a name for themselves in the DIY scene.

With consistent touring for the first two years, Cry Baby spent free time writing and recording in bedroom studios. Initially only putting out singles, they began to piece together songs that felt like they belonged together on a record. Inspired by the boy bands and soul groups that soundtracked their early lives as 90's babies, the band dug through archives of 30-year-old samples and synthesizers to form their sound. In this, the band's new EP Everything I Didn't Say was born - a genre hopping, vibe heavy record that captures the feeling of finally having the guts to hand your crush a mixtape.

Producing a hybrid of electronic driven, yet full band music, Cry Baby sets out to do it all. Nobody puts baby in a corner.
