SUECO TEAMS UP WITH LEGENDARY TRAVIS BARKER FOR "SOS"
Get ready for a head-banging, pop-punk dream. RIAA gold-certified singer/producer SUECO teams up with the iconic Travis Barker for their new record, “SOS” out now via Atlantic Records.
The track is reminiscent of the golden pop-punk era, and will have you wanting to bust out your converse, skinny jeans and skinny ties. The playful keyboard mixed in with Travis’s signature drum work and magnetic guitar make this a flavorful anthem.
Produced by Barker and dwilly (Mike Posner, Ty Dolla $ign, Trevor Daniel), with additional production by Colin “DOC” Brittain (5 Seconds of Summer, All Time Low, Papa Roach), “SOS (Feat. Travis Barker)” sees Sueco – f.k.a. Sueco the Child – further continue to fuse electric, alt-pop energy to his already wildly inventive sonic approach.
Sueco first unveiled his electrifying new sound late last year with his single, “PRIMADONA.” The genre-bending single followed a series of acclaimed releases from Sueco, including the hypnotic “Smackdown (Feat. TOKYO’S REVENGE),” “Juice,” and 2019’s full-length debut project, MISCREANT, highlighted by the global streaming smash, “fast.”
Last year, Sueco joined forces with global superstars Ty Dolla $ign, Wiz Khalifa, and Lil Yachty for “Speed Me Up,” produced by Take A Daytrip (Lil Nas X, Big Sean, YBN Cordae) and featured in Paramount Pictures’ blockbuster action-adventure, Sonic The Hedgehog. “Speed Me Up” was accompanied by a star-studded official video which premiered during MTV’s GRAMMY® Awards special. In addition, Sueco made his high profile network television debut with a spectacular performance of the track on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Immediately recognizable for his long blue hair, gleaming grill, and headbanging beats, Sueco proved an online sensation with 2019’s RIAA gold-certified breakthrough hit single, “fast.” Hailed by Rolling Stone as “a low-slung, battering ram of a record made up of little more than ‘a clap, a hi-hat and an 808,’” the track lit up TikTok with over 2.5 million videos en route to more than 200 million worldwide streams, catapulting it to the top spot at TikTok and #1 on Spotify’s “Viral 50 - Global” and “Viral 50 – US” charts. Furthermore, “fast” was followed by an official remix featuring Offset and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, which premiered on Apple Music’s Beats 1 as Zane Lowe’s #WorldFirst.
