Australian trio Middle Kids are gearing up to release their debut album, Lost Friends, this May. Today, they’ve shared the second single, “On My Knees,” which follows “Mistake,” shared early this year. The song comes with a video featuring audition tapes of people showing off their talents. The band said this about the song: "'On My Knees' is about rejecting the value system of the individual as the prime unit of society. It's also about how suffering and disappointment can help change our perspective in a healthy way. When we stop focus on 'winning' and can submit to something bigger, or to each other, we are better people." Lost Friends is out May 4 via Domino. Catch Middle Kids at the Tractor Tavern on Saturday, June 30. [ Under the Radar ]

No word on when her album will be released. [ Noisey ]
