Hailing from New Haven, CT, The Problem With Kids Today are your go-to trio for a shot of unfiltered rock and roll energy.
Since kicking things off in 2020, The Problem With Kids Today have been causing a stir with their no-nonsense sound.
At the helm is the enigmatic “The Great” Tate Brooks, belting out vocals and shredding on the guitar like it’s nobody’s business.
His partner-in-crime, Silas “The Slayer” Lourenco Lang, lays down the buttery bassline and adds some killer backup vocals.
And let’s not forget about the backbone of the operation, “Rock N Roll” Reena Yu, who keeps it all in check with her killer drumming and backup vocals.
Their latest jam, “What Else Could I Say,” comes complete with a killer music video, thanks to the genius behind Kicker Pictures, Connor Rog. This track is just a taste of what’s to come from their debut album, “Born To Rock,” dropping on February 9, 2024. Give it a spin on all your favorite streaming platforms.
Tate Brooks spills the beans on the birth of “What Else Could I Say,” calling it an indie punk battle cry that was born out of sheer frustration and a good dose of real-life drama. Not only did it smash through their writer’s block, but it set the bar sky-high for the rest of the album.
For those itching to catch them live, mark your calendars. They’re hitting up Three Sheets in New Haven on October 28, followed by a rowdy night at JJ’s Tavern in Northampton, MA on December 15. And don’t worry, more gigs are in the pipeline.
Mixing up the vibes of the 70s with their own signature twist, TPWKT brew up a concoction of punk, power pop, and feel-good rock and roll. Their live shows? Let’s just say they’re like a lightning bolt to the heart of New Haven’s music scene, earning them a spot as one of the city’s most hyped acts.
Remember the name, because The Problem With Kids Today is a band that’s here to stay.
