After two EPs this is Tuk Smiths's 2022 single! "Everybody Loves You When You're Dead" is a powerful track by itself, but when coupled with the harsh realities featured throughout the accompanying music video, truly helps to flesh out the track's narrative and complex themes.

Relaesed on vinyl with B-Side "Ain't For The Faint". Tuk Smith on creating "Everybody Loves You When You're Dead": "I was channeling my favorite '70s glam gods on this track, for sure.

I woke up one morning with the phrase "everybody loves you when you're dead" running through my head, so I sat down at the piano and the song kind of wrote itself.

I had been struggling with the death of a friend and I was flooded with existential thoughts.

It's not necessarily a song about death, per se, it's a bit more layered with some social commentary thrown in there.

Personally, I look at it as more a freedom song." Founded in Nashville by former Biters lead Tuk Smith, the '70s-inspired rockers are gearing up to re-introduce the world to the greater rock onslaught of sound as they begin their crown-grabbing ascent.
