THE WRECKS FIND SOLACE AFTER BREAKUP BY SMASHING THINGS IN “THINGS YOU MAKE ME DO” VIDEO
SONDER DELUXE OUT NOVEMBER 4 VIA BIG NOISE
Alt-pop band The Wrecks share a dynamic video for their newly released blustering alt pop single “Things You Make Me Do.” While the song is about being in an inescapable one-way relationship, the cinematic video (directed by: Natalie Hewitt) starts off by following vocalist/producer Nick Anderson around a sun-filled house doing his daily morning routine until he ventures outside to take out his frustrations by smashing things.
“We’ve been overwhelmed by the fans’ support on ‘Things You Make Me Do’ and how it got more streams in one day than any of our music,” Anderson exclaims. “For this song we worked with Natalie Hewitt (who creatively directed the ’Sonder’ album artwork and videos) to do the video and it perfectly depicts the song of doing things for people you love that you don’t want to necessarily do like going to a rom-comm with your partner or trying to dress up for someone you want to impress.”
The “Things You Make Me Do” single arrived in tandem with the announcement of Sonder Deluxe (the Deluxe Edition of the band’s critically-hailed June 2022 sophomore album which will be released on November 4, 2022 via Big Noise). The video comes right on the heels of the band’s Back And Better Than Ever Tour – which kicked off in Reno, NV at Cargo Concert Hall last night – and features support from CARR and Arlie.
The Back And Better Than Ever Tour follows the band’s wildly successful, 90% sold out, June/July leg and it kicked off with a performance at Sonoma Harvest Festival in Sonoma, CA on October 9. It will hit cities such as Las Vegas, Detroit, Baltimore, Miami, New Orleans, Houston, San Diego, and more before concluding on November 19 at Majestic Theater in Ventura, CA. Tickets and VIP can be found at WeAreTheWrecks.com
Sonder (Deluxe) will be available right as the band are in the midst of their Back And Better Than Ever Tour and it collects not only their distinctive witty, frantic genre-bending tracks that made the original album land on Spotify’s Top 10 U.S. Album Charts release week (“Sonder,” “I Love This Part,” “Lone Survivor,” and “Where Are You Now” featuring girlhouse), but also adds bonus content with acoustic and remixed versions of original Sonder songs like “Sonder (Acoustic),” “Normal (Acoustic),” “Lone Survivor (Molly Otto Remix),” “Dystopia (Molly Otto Remix),” as well as a handful of B-Sides.
