Cruel Hearts Club return with nostalgic single “High Waist Jeans”

Cruel Hearts Club are back, and they’re bringing the heat of ‘76 with them. After a brief pause, the punk-rock powerhouse returns with High Waist Jeans – a tribute to hazy, rebellious summer nights and the timeless thrill of running with the misfits and the bad boys. 

Steeped in nostalgia, High Waist Jeans captures the essence of carefree days and the raw energy that has defined the band’s live shows for years. Though their sound has evolved, this track is a heartfelt gift to fans who’ve stood by them through thick and thin. 

Recorded during their early days, High Waist Jeans serves as both a thank-you and a reintroduction as Cruel Hearts Club gear up for a new chapter. After a break due to health issues, the band is back, working on brand-new tracks. But before diving into the future, they wanted to show love to their longtime fans with this old favorite. The track will be accompanied by a music video featuring behind-the-scenes footage and a social media campaign revisiting key moments in the band’s journey.

About Cruel Hearts Club 

Fusing punk-rock attitude with grunge dynamics and a gritty glam aesthetic, Cruel Hearts Club are no strangers to the stage, having supported icons like Iggy Pop, Sting, The Libertines, and James. Their acclaimed debut EP Trash Love showcased their raw, visceral energy and ear for unapologetic anthems, earning them early tastemaker praise and airplay on Radio 2 and Radio X. 

The trio – Edie Langley, Gita Langley, and Gabi Woo – juggle the chaos of parenthood with the passion and urgency of rock ‘n’ roll, embodying the ethos of doing whatever it takes to make their creative vision a reality. Their music is visceral, their performances electrifying, and their story a testament to independence, resilience, and authenticity. As they work towards their debut album, High Waist Jeans offers a nostalgic glance back while looking ahead to their future.
