BENNY SINGS & REMI WOLF LIKE TO BE IN “PYJAMAS”

NEW SINGLE WITH VIDEO DIRECTED BY REMI WOLF

FROM THE ALBUM YOUNG HEARTS, OUT MARCH 24TH

Whereas Benny Sings has always written autobiographical songs, on Young Hearts he looks outward, creating a fictional cast of lovable losers – such as on “Pyjamas”, a song about a man with low libido and his other half wanting more. The music video, which Remi Wolf directed, shows Benny and Remi in character as the couple in the song.

“I’m always looking for the anti-hero,” Benny says. “One of the subjects that hasn’t been sung about too much is the male with too low libido, instead of too high. We all know the ‘I can’t get no satisfaction’ take on things. Just seems funny to me to turn that around, a duet where the girl wants to roll around in the hay, and the boy is nervously trying to avoid the question on hand. ‘We could take a walk on the beach… Read a book maybe?’”

Young Hearts is Benny Sings’ first record made with a single producer — beatmaker-to-the-stars Kenny Beats. The pair connected over DM, after which Kenny invited Benny to work from his home studio in L.A., where they would jam and write during the day. They’d riff off each other, sharing stories, melodies, and adlibs with collaborators Kenny invited over, relaxing into the anything-goes vibe.

Benny says, “I’ve always loved bossa nova. I’ve listened to Getz/Gilberto by João Gilberto and Stan Getz over a million times in my life. This music is light, yet profound, and I love it. So to pay homage to this music on “Pyjamas”, together with Kenny’s crazy drums, is a thrill for me.”

Benny recently started hosting a new series on Twitch, “Benny Talks”. The next episode aired tonight at 1pm PST / 4pm EST / 10pm CET.
