Showing Teeth Releases New Single ‘Bad Exchanges’

Showing Teeth has released the new single “Bad Exchanges” and announced her debut EP, A Fate Worse Than Loneliness, due September 4 through Republic Records and Spinefarm. The Kentucky-born, Nashville-based artist also confirmed a joint signing with the two labels, placing the new track at the center of a broader fall campaign that includes the EP and a North American tour with President. “Bad Exchanges” is the opening song on the seven-track project.
“Bad Exchanges” pairs detuned guitars, electronic textures, and a driving rhythm with lyrics centered on emotional instability and the fear that happiness will not last. The song includes the line, “Why can’t I just be happy? This feeling always ends.”
