Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by DJ Kevin Cole, host of Drive Time on KEXP, is "Holiday" by Confidence Man, from the 2022 album TILT on Heavenly Recordings/[PIAS].
With today's Song of the Day, Australian electro-pop duo Confidence Man aim to make the party last forever.
“We’ve been trying for the most epic, hands up, euphoric anthem for a while and this is the first time we’ve come close… Turns out it’s pretty difficult, but nothing’s too hard for Con Man,” said vocalist Sugar Bones.
His bandmate Janet Planet added: “No one tells Confidence Man what to do. Who said a Holiday can’t last forever? Spend big and live free, that’s our motto. And it can be yours too. A vacation is just sunburn at premium prices but a holiday is a state of mind.”
