Cheekface Share New Song “The Fringe”
On Tour This Spring

Los Angeles-based indie rock trio Cheekface have shared a new song, “The Fringe.” It was shared via a lyric video. Watch it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.
In a press release, singer/guitarist Greg Katz says the song was born out of a discussion with bassist Mandy Tannen.
“Even if you don’t think you’re knowingly capitulating to the demands of later capitalism, success in your career or field kind of feels like selling out,” Katz says. “Like, work, or art, or whatever feels somehow more authentic, or just better, if other people don’t like it, or if you’re failing. And maybe it feels like a badge of honor to just reject success altogether, and because of that, there’s maybe an impulse to self-sabotage, like, to do things on purpose that you know will not succeed. Also, this song has a nice guitar solo in my opinion, although I am biased, because I played it.”
Cheekface’s most recent album was 2022’s Too Much to Ask. It included the songs “Pledge Drive” and “We Need a Bigger Dumpster.”
