SWMRS have released a music video for “Lose Lose Lose”, the current single off their new album Berkeley’s On Fire. The video, which was directed by Ambar Navarro, is out now.
SWMRS have also announced they will perform “Lose Lose Lose” live on ESPN on August 1, 2019 from The X Games in Minneapolis, MN.
“I always wanted to know what it would feel like to crowd surf if the average age of the crowd was 71 instead of 17,” shared SWMRS co-frontman Cole Becker. “Ambar and I talked a lot about this video as a way of inverting the formula of ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’. Being a young person in 2019 feels a lot more like being in an inhospitable bingo club than being in the hyper idealized vision of a punk show. You have all this energy and vision and passion to contribute to the world, and you’re constantly met with this sludgy rejection as if you’re intruding on someone else’s party. “
“Lose Lose Lose” is the latest single off SWMRS’ critically acclaimed sophomore album Berkeley’s On Fire, which was released on February 15, 2019 on Fueled By Ramen. The album, which debuted in the Top 10 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Chart, is available now.

The two-night, two-city, UNCOOL Fest 5 will kick off at Los Angeles, CA’s Hollywood Palladium on October 25, 2019, and culminate in a hometown show at Berkeley, CA’s UC Theatre on October 26, 2019.
