Y Unveils New Single ‘Ladies Who’ from Their Upcoming EP

Y has shared their latest single ‘Ladies Who’, the third track unveiled from their self-titled debut EP ‘Y’. The excitement surrounding the London-based band is palpable as they blend various musical influences to create something distinctly theirs.
Featuring members associated with well-known acts like Fat White Family, Meatraffle, and Pregoblin, the band launched their journey via founders Adam Brennan and Sophie Coppin. Their collaboration has resulted in a delightful fusion of styles, leading to what they affectionately term “wonk rock,” “Gameboy thrash,” and even hints of “Egyptian wedding music.”
“‘Ladies Who’ approaches the topic of exploitation in the media under the joyful guise of a wonky pop song,” they say. While the lyrics tell the story of a female killer, the music adopts a whimsical cabaret flair. This highlights the absurdity often found in media exaggeration for sensationalism.
Y cleverly poses the question: “Ladies who? What would truly make you listen?” Captivating and thought-provoking, this song invites listeners to reflect on how stories are spun by the media.
