Feel Your Feelings Fool! The Regrettes

Led by singer/songwriter Lydia Night, the Regrettes were all in their teens when they released their first singles in 2016. All three of these singles -- "A Living Human Girl," "Hey Now," and "Hot" -- show the Los Angeles-based quartet demonstrate a pop sense so keen, it could be called classicist if it weren't for the nervy, punky energy and teenage rebellion that keep this music fresh.

Night formed the Regrettes with guitarist Genessa Gariano, bassist Sage Nicole, and drummer Maxx Morando in 2015. Night started playing guitar and writing songs when she was six, picking up pointers from classic rock and punk played around the house. She wound up enrolling in Los Angeles' School of Rock program around the age of 12, which is when she first met Gariano and Nicole, but the Regrettes weren't formed until late 2015. By that point, Night had several originals under her belt, all of which helped get the band signed to Warner. "A Living Human Girl" appeared in the summer of 2016, followed by "Hey Now" and "Hot," all teasers for the full-length debut, Feel Your Feelings Fool!, which was released by Warner Bros. in early 2017. Early in 2018, the Regrettes released the EP Attention Seeker. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
