HONESTAV RELEASES NEW SINGLE “GROWIN’ PAINS” + OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO
Alternative recording artist and songwriter honestav releases his new single “Growin’ Pains”. Get it HERE.
Backed by the simple strum of a guitar as the budding star sings of his hometown friends and the feeling of growing apart, “Growin’ Pains” was first teased the track at the end of the year on socials, to immediate virality and praise – amassing millions of views and likes.
“I’m really excited to share this song with my fans,” says honestav. “This is a song I wrote shortly after my ‘hometown’ show in Missouri late last year that summed up how I was feeling at the time. I hope everyone likes it as much I do. Love y’all!”
“Growin’ Pains” gives listeners a taste of what’s to come as the budding singer/songwriter also announces the deluxe version of his EP hara-kiri, arriving on February 28th.
Originally released last November, the 12-song EP features his lead track “Hurts to Fall in Love” which debuted to 650,000 organic streams in its first week and has continued to grow, currently sitting in the Top 40 at Alternative Radio. Since its release, hara-kiri has peaked at #10 on Apple Music Chart and garnered over 120 million streams and counting.
hara-kiri also includes honestav’s breakout track “I’d Rather Overdose” which examines the deaths of his father and brother. The track took off like wildfire and has since amassed 104 million streams globally. A subsequent remix, “I’d Rather Overdose – MOD SUN Remix,” charted at #21 on Billboard’s Alternative Chart, while also appearing on Billboard’s Hot Alternative Songs, Hot Rock Songs and Hot Alternative & Rock Songs charts.
The news arrives on the heels of his 2025 headline solo ‘No License Tour,’ with tickets on sale now HERE. The 15-city tour kicks off on March 6th in Nashville, TN at Basement East, with additional stops in Indianapolis, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Chicago and Pittsburg, and more before wrapping up on April 4th in Lakewood, OH at Mahall’s. Special guest Damien Styles will join as support on all dates and recording artist Z will join for select shows.
