It’s Friday and Fromgirltogirl has a new single, ‘Virtual’ to share with you from viral Spotify indie rock outfit Arms Akimbo. The four-piece band has found success touring with Walk The Moon, The Animals and Said The Whale.
The single ‘ Virtual’ is about social media and how our generation’s most prevalent form of communication these days is commenting. Peter Schrupp reveals, “we’re no exception to the rule. After a while you just need to reconnect. After a while you miss your friends. This song illustrates that desire to shake yourself and the people around you awake.”
About Arms Akimbo
Arms Akimbo is a maddening series of clichés that manage to form something truly original. They met in college and released a self-produced EP (Vignettes) that found quick success in their Los Angeles hometown. Since then, Arms Akimbo’s Peter Schrupp, Christopher Kalli, Matthew Sutton and Colin Boppell have tapped into that post-college-now-wtf vein of hope, insecurity and fuck it, let’s just enjoy this with their most recent EP The Wrong Kind Of Dance Party.
The EP slowly exposes us to the moments in college where we end up at the end of the night, sitting with our best friends in the driveway and wondering what the point of life is. Whatever it is, the band has hit a nerve. Maybe it’s that never ending nag that this time in life is fleeting, that responsibility is knocking hard on the door. At the end of the day, we are living in an increasingly unpredictable world, the only thing we can count on are good friends and the moment.
