New York, NY (Top40 Charts) California reggae-influenced band
Dirty Heads have released their highly anticipated 8th studio album Midnight Control via Better Noise Music. To coincide with the album release the band has released a new single and video for the track "Make Me."
"Midnight Control is the culmination of almost twenty years of musical exploration, creativity, and our love for creating original impactful art and music," vocalist Jared Watson said. "It's the best album we've ever written, and I think that's due to the fact we have been through so much, done so much, and are comfortable as songwriters, producers, players and human beings. And knowing who we want to work with to get what Sonics. We are so connected and on the same frequency with Ryan Ogren that it was just magic the whole time. We just wanna continue to make dope shit and push music forward and midnight control is exactly that."
"Life's Been Good," the band's take on Joe Walsh's 1978 hit, is racing up the alternative radio charts and currently in the Top 20 at #11 with support by stations across the country, including KROQ in Los Angeles. Since its release the track has amassed nearly 5 million streams across all platforms.
"'Life's Been Good' is the perfect follow up to 'Vacation,' lead singer Jared Watson commented. "It just felt right. If you like the vibe of 'Vacation' and that song impacted your life in a positive way, 'Life Is Good' is the continuation of that feeling. I think the story of enjoying life is really what
Dirty Heads are all about."
Dirty Heads are currently out streaming some of the biggest alternative acts in the U.S., with over 2 BILLION total streams on-demand + programmed. Worldwide, the band has over 1.29 MILLION digital track sales and 1.5 BILLION on-demand streams since 2018. Statistics via U.S. and Global
