The Dare offers up new track ‘Tambourine’, announces new EP ‘Freakquencies: Vol 1’
His next EP - named after his New York party Freakquencies - will land later this month.

Currently in the midst of a huge summer of festival performances, The Dare has offered up a brand new track to help keep the party going. A bit of a swerve from some of his more indie sleaze-fuelled anthems, ‘Tambourine’ sees Harrison Patrick Smith move closer to the heavier, more club-orientated end of his musical spectrum.
Alongside his new track, Smith has announced plans to release a brand new EP, ‘Freakquencies: Vol 1’, later this month. Named after his now-infamous New York party series Freakquencies, the four-track instrumental release will land on 22nd via Polydor / Republic Records. The EP will mark his first release since the deluxe edition (or ‘Afters’) of his debut album ‘What’s Wrong With New York?’ landed earlier this year. The tracklisting is as follows.
‘Freakquencies: Vol 1’ tracklist:
1. Kick
2. Modelizer
3. Tambourine
4. Exhilaration
