Alternative rock band, New Politics have just released their new single “Comeback Kid.” The lead singer David Boyd says, “Writing comeback kid couldn’t have come at a more perfect time for us. I feel the message of the song might not be anything new, it’s something we’ve all heard before. But it’s a reminder and a truth everyone needs in their life. If you’re playing a game, if you’re in a relationship or hustling at work, life is a roller coaster of wins and losses, but you must maintain the will and the courage to bounce back.”
Consisting of Danish-born, David Boyd [lead vocals, guitar] and Søren Hansen[bass, guitar, keys, vocals], as well as NY native Louis Vecchio [drums] – New Politics exploded onto the scene with their smash hit “Harlem,” earning over 31 million Spotify streams and reaching the top 5 at Alternative Radio.
