Nobody’s perfect.
Rather than hiding it, Girl Wilde is embracing it on her punchy new debut single, “BADSIDE.” It’s undeniably very pop, but it’s a short and sweet breathe of fresh air of major, guitar driven bubblegum, waving its hand back and forth in a classroom of minor keys and synthesizers. Clocking in at just under two minutes, it’s effectively imploring you to press play again. The LA-based songstress appears to have an arsenal of more songs ready to go, but for now, C-Heads has an exclusive peak at track numero uno today.

“(BADSIDE is) about the side we try to hide from people when we first meet them. The mess, the struggles, the downright uncomfortable and unattractive truths.”
“BADSIDE was unintentionally the first song I wrote for the project. I went into the studio with Allie Mcdonald and Dave Burris and spoke to them about the side we try to hide from people when we first meet them. The mess, the struggles, the downright uncomfortable and unattractive truths. We found ourselves giggling over the stupid and destructive things we did as our past selves to seem more desirable. We felt sassy and empowered. We just had a really good time making it and I hope people will feel that.”
