Announced today, two-time Grammy-nominated rock group Plain White T’s are back with their latest single “Would You Even,” out now. Listen here. Leaning back into their pop-punk roots, Plain White T’s treat fans to a new sonic bop — fit with an undeniably catchy chorus and diary-honest lyrics.
Known for their charming melodies and punk-centric guitar tones, “Would You Even” once again boasts the band’s ability to write memorable hooks and intoxicating hits.
Fans can hear this latest single, along with “Spaghetti Tattoo” and “Happy,” on all streaming platforms today. “I always have this fear, when I’m creating something that I really love, that what if I die, and these songs I’m writing and pouring my heart into will just be stuck on my iPhone forever,” says Higgenson. “Never to be heard. Never to even get the chance to be a hit. That’s the basis of ‘Would You Even.’ I was dating someone and I would drive home super late sometimes after hanging out with them, and then the next morning, I would think about how tired I was, and how stupid and dangerous that was. And that led me to the question, ‘Was this person even worth the risk? Would she do the same for me?'”
The band previously dropped “Spaghetti Tattoo” and “Happy.” The Plain White T’s were in the news recently with a beautifully heartwarming story of Higgenson performing their signature smash “Hey There Delilah” bedside for a cancer-stricken fan who was named after the track.
