FLEECE Releases New Song “Do You Wanna Party”
Canadian indie rock band FLEECE, consisting of Matt Rogers (vocals/keyboard), Megan Ennenberg (vocals/guitar), Ethan Soil (drums) and Jameson Daniel (guitar/vocals), released a new song called “Do You Wanna Party” along with a music video on June 22, 2023.
The song is the second single off of their upcoming fourth studio album, following “It's the Life” released back in March.
The track was written by Matt Rogers, Megan Ennenberg, Ethan Soil and Jameson Daniel. Produced by Gus Van Go.
The accompanying video was directed by Dylan Mitro.
Megan Ennenberg said of the song, “This song came from a desire to stop thinking and just feel. To prioritize the body's instinct to wiggle instead of rationalizing or overthinking so much. The instinct to move is the path to a special form of freedom, one that's always inside you. It's an invitation to use that moment and movement to remember that your body is your own home, your own place. As well as an invitation to join the FLEECE world of simple, colourful fun, and get dancing and party with us!“.- Ethan Soil added, “When we first wrote this song, we were like, this is our 'Come On Eileen'!”and Matthew Rogers concludes: “It's so fun seeing Megan take lead and sing her heart out in this tune. Plus we got the added bonus of getting to watch her do some crazy circus tricks she secretly had up her sleeve. The whole thing gives us the warm fuzzies.”
Director Dylan Mitro said of the video, “Pulling inspiration from my love for ABBA and the absolute camp aesthetic of their costumes and videos of the 1970s/’80s. The whole process was organic and had a documentary feeling to it as we filmed. We kept true to what FLEECE does best…playing around and having fun. This video was Megan’s moment to shine and I’m so happy to have her in the spotlight and let the viewer be in awe of her and her talents.”
The new album is expected to be released later this year, -
