Middle Kids release new song ‘R U 4 ME?’
It’s the trio’s first new music in over 18 months!
Sharing their first new music since their 2019 EP ‘New Songs For Old Problems’, Australia’s Middle Kids are back with brand new track ‘R U 4 ME?’.
“I was at university once and there were all these signs on the walls saying ‘BE NICE IT’S NOT THAT HARD’,” lead singer and songwriter Hannah Joy says of the song’s inspiration. “The tone of the message itself actually wasn’t very nice or kind…. We are always looking around at other people thinking “are you on my team?”. I think this just results in us all feeling lonely.”
