Quickly cementing herself as one of the most prolific artists, Australian rocker Alex Lahey is back with her first single, “Sucker For Punishment,” the follow up to her 2019 album The Best of Luck Club.
Along with the new single, Lahey also announced tour dates w]along with the Regrettes and City & Colour.
The single focuses on “Self-delusion,” Lahey said, explaining “I don’t think there has ever been a time where our actions and attitudes as individuals have had such an impact on broader humanity and the planet. Whether it’s a ‘think about it later’ attitude towards climate change, the undemocratic consequences of sharing personal data to big business online, a lethargicness in the face of political engagement or the need to be validated as a worthwhile individual through obtaining arbitrary units of engagement on social media – we need to catch ourselves out before we suffer greater consequences.”
