The Double A’s are returning with a vengeance, releasing their raucous new single, “Killer Bees.” Blending folk storytelling, rock grit, funk grooves, and country soul, “Killer Bees” is a testament to the duo’s signature style, unpredictable, infectious, and impossible to pin down.
It seems only fitting that the creative minds behind The Double A’s, Alex Tate and Alex Bradshaw, have perfected their sound since they were kids and lived on the same street. What began as casual writing sessions, catalyzed by a meeting with a mutual music teacher, has blossomed into a life-affirming sonic odyssey, one that has crystallized further under the roof of Bradshaw’s DIY studio, where their debut album is currently buzzing to life.
With “Killer Bees,” The Double A’s offer up a foot-stomping, head-bobbing anthem that dares not sit down in one genre’s box. Funk-infused rhythms propel “Killer Bees,” while folk-inspired lyricism and a rock ‘n’ roll heart add undeniable character. Sprinkled in the musical styles of Chris Adams, Raphael Rico Dejesus, and Guy Ficker, you’ve got a song that manages to feel both organically raw and immaculately layered.
And whether you’re passionate about folk, a country lover, or a rock lover, “Killer Bees” is designed not to go away, you might say. Following its name, “Killer Bees” is built to stick. The Double A’s have created a sound that is every bit as unpredictable as their influences, and this latest single shows they’re just getting started.
