Today, Too Free releases a new single, “Elastic,” from their forthcoming debut album, Love In High Demand, out February 21st on Sister Polygon. It follows “No Fun,” “another piece of earworm dance-pop” (Stereogum), and lead single “ATM.” “Elastic” is driven by a bouncing beat and jaunty percussion. “‘Elastic’ is an attempt to define those intangible spaces between seduction and letting go of your inhibitions,” says Awad Bilal. “Unlearning generations of conditioning to explore the different kinds of love that we are capable of feeling without stigma or fear.”
In conjunction, the band announces additional North American tour dates. Following their shows in Washington, D.C. and New York, they’ll play Chicago, Montreal, Winooski, and Bloomington. More dates will soon follow.

Too Free is the Washington, D.C.-based trio of Awad Bilal (Big Freedia, Vasillus), Carson Cox (Merchandise), and Don Godwin (Callers, Impractical Cockpit). Their only mission is a desire to connect with others in the space that music creates. Drawing from improvisation and experimentation, they deconstruct their songs to their most necessary elements, leaning into their collective punk ethos and DIY backgrounds. Drawing equally from elements of South Florida freestyle and Jersey electro into DC’s signature polyrhythms, the record is a continuous refinement of the virtue of motion – each composition rooted in propulsive energy that envelops. Aiming to make something with a more utopian outlook that counters the pervasive pessimism, archaic ideologies and dystopian timelines we interact with on a daily basis, they approach this project with an open-endedness that incorporates higher concepts of what pop art can sound like.
