Following their bright and poppy single “Prom Dress,” British alt-rock trio Fake A Smile released the brooding and much darker “Don’t Stop,” which brings out their great songwriting talent to the fullest. Produced by Gianluca Buccellati (Arlo Parks, Biig Piig,) the song captivates thanks to its minimalist instrumentation, creating an intense and mesmerizing vibe. The video captures the vibe of “Don’t Stop” beautifully. Asked about their second single,” the band says:

“‘Don’t Stop’ delves into the less breezy and more dark, grittier sound of our record collection. Topically current, the single channels new fangled cross-atlantic inspirations from the likes of early Verve and BRMC to the early aughts scenes of ‘meet me in the bathroom.'”

Both singles are taken from their upcoming EP Shoot Me To The Moon, out in June this year and I’m looking forward to it. For now, listen to “Don’t Stop,” our Song Pick of the Day, and check out the cool video too:
