Role Model Says “Look At That Woman
Today, Role Model shared “Look At That Woman,” the new single from his sophomore album, Kansas Anymore. Breezy yet tinged with melancholy, the 1970s-influenced track finds the singer-songwriter reflecting on a past relationship. He wrote the song with Jonah Shy (Shawn Mendes), singer-songwriter Annika Bennett, who also contributed background vocals, and Noah Conrad (Niall Horan, Ashe), who produced.
“’Look At That Woman’ is a very nostalgic song that is looking back and regretting certain decisions,” explains Role Model. “It’s my coping song disguised as a nice, easygoing little jam.”
Kansas Anymore will be released on July 19 via Interscope Records. While his 2022 debut album Rx was about being in love, Kansas Anymore is inspired by homesickness, heartbreak, and the process of redefining oneself amidst those feelings. See below for track listing. Beginning today, signed vinyl, CDs and new Kansas Anymore merchandise are available for pre-order HERE.
“Deeply Still In Love,” his previous single, has amassed over six million combined global streams and taken the internet by storm, with more than 288 million views across more than 40,000 creates on TikTok. The track entered the Spotify US Daily Viral Chart on May 28 at #54, supported additionally by its growth on Instagram Reels surpassing 13,000 creates.
Role Model will be playing his new songs live for the first time this fall when he joins acclaimed singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams as special guest on her sold-out The Secret of Us tour. Produced by Live Nation, the U.S. run will kick off on September 5 in Portland, OR, and include multiples nights at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles (September 9, 11 & 12), The Fillmore Auditorium in Denver (September 15 & 16) and Radio City Music Hall in New York City (October 4, 5 & 6).
Now 27, Role Model initially gained traction a string of independent singles in 2017, receiving co-signs from Benny Blanco and the late legend Mac Miller. He unassumingly caught fire with projects such as the oh, how perfect and our little angel EPs. In 2021, “forever&more” racked up 60 million Spotify streams as OnesToWatch christened it “one of our favorite songs of the summer.” DIY pegged him among its “Class of 2022,” and he embarked on a massive world tour with stops at Coachella, Hangout Music Festival, Bonnaroo and more. After attaining hundreds of millions of streams and selling out headline shows, Role Model released his full-length debut album, Rx, in 2022, which earned acclaim from HYPEBEAST, Interview, FLAUNT, People, CLASH Magazine and more.
