Dead Pony announce Eat My Dust! EP, release new single Freak Like Me

Dead Pony have announced a brand-new EP, Eat My Dust!.

Due out on May 15 via ADA, the release is named after January’s fiery lead single, and is the band’s first new collection of material since 2024 breakout debut album Ignore This.

They’ve also shared new single Freak Like Me, which vocalist Anna Shields reveals is a “a love letter to the outsiders in society – the ones who never quite fit the mould and stopped trying to. It’s about owning every bizarre, messy, sexy, beautiful part of who you are, and finding your people in that chaos.

“I was really inspired by the energy of The Priory bar Glasgow, where we used to hang out and play our first gigs – sweaty, loud, full of young musicians and misfits just being unapologetically themselves. There was this unspoken understanding that no-one had to pretend. That’s the spirit I wanted to bottle in this track – a space where being a ‘freak’ isn’t just accepted; it’s celebrated.”

Check out Freak Like Me below:
