supermodel*

[ post-punk ][ dance ][ hip-hop ][ LA ]

supermodel* is the project of LA-based artist and producer Frankie Beanie, a Virginia native whose path has spanned east coast punk bands, the indie and dance scenes of Liverpool, and a deep love for hip-hop and the Beastie Boys. The whole thing is lowercase by design. Don't overthink it.

"i used to live in england" premiered on BBC 6 Music's New Music Fix. Deadpan delivery, funk-driven bass, razor-sharp cultural references. Tesco meal deals and American stereotypes. It sounds like LCD Soundsystem wrote it on a flight back from Liverpool.
