JUNE 17-23, 2018 WHAT'S UP! 11 next two huge successes — "1, 2, 3, 4" and "Rhythm Of Love" — followed that mellow vibe established with "Delilah." The new release brings the same catchy hooks and melodies the T's are known for, but with ethereal electronic pop and synth additions changing the landscape of the music. "We've been under the radar for so long now," Higgenson says of the band's new release. "We were like, 'Let's just write some kickass songs that we all love, and kind of throw [away] any preconceived notions that anyone might have on the T's.' Who gives a sh*t? We didn't start this band to try to fit into a little hole … we just want to write great songs and want to connect with people. We want to be considered great artists, and we can't do that by worrying about what people expect. "I'm just so excited about the album, period," he continues. "I really do love it; I'm really proud of it. Every corner of it — from the artwork, to the videos we've done, to album itself, to the tour — we're working on something really special [and] it's all just feeling so good. You're going to like it — I'm confident!"
