Inspired by the colorful sounds of the sixties through the eighties, Laughing Cats crafts a refreshing nod to the past while embracing today’s production sophistication with their newest single ‘Jerk’. This bold, catchy anthem that effortlessly fuses nostalgia with modern edge is the product of the collaborative spirit between accomplished musician Tony Fredianelli (formerly of Third Eye Blind) and theatrical powerhouse Lauren Schiff. Their joined passion brings a unique blend of pop-rock and alternative vibes that draws listeners in from the first beat.
As you’ll hear, this track is a lively exploration of human relationships, filled with relatable themes of vulnerability and self-awareness. Schiff’s vocal delivery is compelling and dynamic, capturing the raw emotional range of longing and regret with both power and subtlety. Her voice complements the track’s upbeat tempo and electronic rock foundation, a production choice that infuses the song with an infectious energy while giving it a clean, polished feel. Fredianelli’s experience in rock shines through with riffs and electronic layering that are both nostalgic and inventive.
The result of these combined talents, ‘Jerk’ is an invitation to reflect and have fun – a mix that will resonate with listeners who appreciate depth wrapped in a high-energy package. What’s more is that this single gives listeners an insight into Laughing Cats upcoming album, Funny Money, which we’ll be keeping an eye out for!
