Will Paquin announces debut record + North American tour dates with two New England stops
Today, Los Angeles-based singer and guitarist Will Paquin announced his self-released, guitar-forward, psych-laced, garage-rock debut album, Hahaha, out on September 12th. With the announcement comes “I Work So Hard,” a song Paquin originally started writing in middle school, bearing the mark of psych rock artists like Ty Segall and the Oh Sees he loved in his formative years, but recontextualized for his current life. About the track, Paquin reflects, “I kept falling into patterns of working with no purpose, going through the motions just to check off boxes. The song is about coming to terms with my own false productivity.”
