Beddy Rays announce new album ‘Do What Ya Wanna’
BEDDY RAYS have announced a new album!
Titled Do What Ya Wanna, the upcoming album from the Australian pop-punk band is the follow-up to 2022’s self-titled debut album, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Warner Music Australia.
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Jacko shares, “this album is us – our highs, our lows, and everything in between. Writing it was a way to make sense of all the craziness life throws at you, but it’s also about not taking yourself too seriously and enjoying the ride. That’s what BEDDY RAYS is all about.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, BEDDY RAYS have released a new music video For a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Red Lights. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Stay The Same and Hold On.
Speaking about the new song, the band shares, “Red Lights is the lead single of our next record Do What Ya Wanna. We chose this song because we feel like it sets the tone for the record. It’s about overcoming adversity, going through tough times but remaining positive and growing from those moments. Hoping it will resonate with those going through a tough time as it’s a reminder that things will always get better.
The new song’s accompanying western-inspired video clip was directed, produced and edited by Natalie Sim. The band adds, “Red Lights leans into our jangly, indie style of songwriting, which directly inspired the western-themed clip. We wanted to blend classic Sergio Leone-style cinematography with absurd humour and gritty western vibes — and Nat Day (Method To My Madness) was instrumental in bringing it all together. Honestly, any excuse to whip out the Akubra works for us.”
