The band girlfriends (Travis Mills & Nick Gross) released their latest EP, Over My Dead Body, on Friday via Big Noise. Produced by Andrew Goldstein (Machine Gun Kelly, Papa Roach, blackbear), the EP is a collection of tracks that are pure sugary pop punk.
Over My Dead Body EP features the previously released tracks, “Life’s A Brittany” and “Over My Dead Body.” Their sound has been compared to Machine Gun Kelly, Greenday, and Blink 182.
Mills shares, “The EP is filled with post-breakup anthems injected with attitude and angst that anyone who’s experienced heartbreak can relate to. If revenge was a power chord, this is what it’d sound like.”
The blonde haired duo is back in the US for a short East Coast run of headlining dates which will kick off this coming Monday, May 15th in Chicago at Cobra Lounge. They will visit Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. before wrapping on May 21st in Brooklyn at Baby’s All Right. The Brooklyn date is being promoted by the Spotify team as part of their hot new "Spotify Stages Presents" concert series.
Before girlfriends formed, neither Travis nor Nick were strangers to creativity or community. The brash rap songs Travis posted on MySpace as T. Mills led to a major label deal, Warped Tour, and diehard fans. He later became a host for Apple Music 1’s The Travis Mills Show and MTV’s TV Series Help! I’m In A Secret Relationship,
Nick Gross, entrepreneur, CEO of Big Noise, founder of the Find Your Grind education platform and drummer of girlfriends and Goldfinger, founded the band with Travis in 2020. Both guys are equally enthusiastic about having another go at the style of caffeinated pop-punk that first shaped them.
