Super Whatevr is excited to share their newest collaboration with Mark Hoppus of Blink-182. Their single ‘Carhartts & Converse’ is out now via Hopeless Records.
Co-written by both Skyler McKee and Hoppus, the track aims to encourage listeners to put their own self-worth and value above all else.
On the dream collaboration, vocalist Skyler McKee shares,
โYโall ever dream of creating art with someone you revere and respect? Yeah, I got to do that with Mark Hoppus. I wanted to make a song about courage and strength amidst people trying to put you down. A song about loving yourself for what youโre worth rather than what others say about you. Mark was an amazing person to work with because heโs so open to facilitating these conversations, and heโs just a badass songwriter in general. Enjoy the tune in your clothes that make you feel the most confident and donโt let anyone tell you that youโre worth anything less.โ
‘Carhartts & Converse’ follows up Super Whatevrโs early 2020 release of their latest full-length album donโt you wanna be glad? produced by Courtney Ballard (Good Charlotte, Waterparks).
The 12-song album follows the bandโs 2017โs Good Luck EP and 2018โs Never Nothing in both time and theme.ย
Composed as a linear narrative tracing McKeeโs path from unrest to inner peace, donโt you wanna be glad? calls back lyrical elements from Super Whatevrโs previous albums to create a cohesive and deeply personal record that the duo, McKee and drummer Chase Vernon have made.
Says McKee,
โThis album is about the pursuit of joy. I had to spend time deconstructing what it is that makes me glad.โ
