2022 is shaping up to be the biggest year in recent memory for Bowling For Soup. The Grammy nominated Texan pop punk quartet are today unveiling their brand new single “I Wanna Be Brad Pitt”. An ode to one of Hollywood’s finest actors, it’s a homage to Brad delivered in a way that only Bowling For Soup can.
The video for the single, featuring one of “Brad’s biggest fans” as well as your favourite pop punk band, can be enjoyed below. In addition to the YouTube video, you can stream I Wanna Be Brad Pitt on your digital platform of choice.
Everyone who knows me, knows I love Brad Pitt. I got this chorus in my head while driving one day, and really, the rest kinda just wrote itself. I wanted the song to be a thoughtful tribute and not sacrifice the homage by making fun of him or things in his life. So that’s the direction I went and when it still got laughs from the band, I knew I had hit it out of the park.
