girlfriends Share New Single with Announce of EP

girlfriends (Travis Mills & Nick Gross) are thrilled to announce their Over My Dead Body EP will be coming out May 12th via Big Noise. Produced by Andrew Goldstein (Machine Gun Kelly, Papa Roach, blackbear), the EP is a collection of tracks that encompass a passion for life, paired with their signature pop punk charm.

Speaking on the EP, Travis shares, "These songs came about in a completely new way for us as a band because they were made one by one with some time in between but somehow sound so cohesive and like we wrote them all that way on purpose. We got to do a lot of cool things while making the EP and being able to tour while recording, really informed some of the songs. They're annoyingly catchy, the hooks are big and better than ever and it's a statement for us as a new band."

To celebrate, the duo has shared a brand new single, "Life's A Brittany," out now. Produced by Andrew Goldstein, the sweet, acoustic-guitar driven track juxtaposes the deeper meaning of the lyrics stemming from pain, purity and expression leading into a cathartic build at the end.

"'Brittany' was one of those songs that started off as a complete joke in my head," says Travis. "I almost felt guilty writing it because it's so conversational and 'easy,' that I had to question if it was good or not. The beauty about working with a producer like Goldstein is he does a really great job at stripping away the 'rules' of songwriting. If it's good it's good, and I think it's a song a lot of people would be scared to make, but it hits the nail on the head of who we are not only as a band but as people."
