The Dead End Kids Club have returned, this time with a brand new music video for their cover of the song “Lonesome Town.”
“The song is Lonesome Town, the place where we all currently reside. Perhaps if we put all our little lonesome towns together they will feel a little less lonely,” Z Berg shared via the band’s Instagram account earlier last month, calling for fans to submit videos of themselves to be used in the track’s music video.
The cover, which is originally by Baker Knight, features Dead End Kids Club members Z Berg and Ryan Ross on vocals, and is the first official collaboration by the duo since 2018’s “The Bad List.”
And while the video features a ton of fans, the duo assured fans who didn’t see themselves in this version that they would be featured in the track’s remix- the release date for which has not been disclosed.
In addition to the video’s debut, the Dead End Kids Club also announced that this week will be dubbed Lonesome Town Week and that their web store would be 40% off all items, with 100% of their proceeds going to the Equal Justice Initiative.
And, since those two announcements were not enough surprises for the week- they also shared that they would be holding a raffle for various merch items, including the shirt Ross wore on stage during their Fall Ball tour back in 2019.
Raffle tickets are $5 each, and each purchase benefits the Marsha P. Johnson Institute and the Black Trans Femmes in the Arts Collective.
You can purchase raffle tickets, along with other DEKC merch here, and be sure to check out “Lonesome Town,” available to stream now on YouTube.
