Multi-talented band Why Don’t We have announced their highly anticipated
sophomore full-length album, The Good Times and The Bad Ones.
The Los Angeles band—Daniel Seavey, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais, Jack Avery,
and Zach Herron—flatlined all social media, picked up their instruments, and
personally wrote, recorded, and co-produced their next chapter themselves.
Powering up pop with D.I.Y. energy, the guys kickstarted their evolution through
a combination of deft musicality and bold experimentation.
Why Don’t We ignite this chapter with the single “Fallin’.” Opening with
an iconic drumline, the track steamrolls out of the gate towards a magnetic and
massive refrain punctuated by fiery falsetto and a chant, “Maybe, we’ll just
keep falling.”
“Lyrically, I was thinking of a girl,” reveals Daniel. “When you’re
thinking about committing to someone, you get those butterflies. It can be
terrifying to get into a relationship, because we’re always moving around so
much. Sometimes, you can’t help falling though.”
“From the jump, we wanted to be super aggressive and in-your-face,” smiles
Corbyn. “It’s not what people would expect from us.”
In the end, Why Don’t We aren’t just the band they always wanted to be;
they’re the band that pop music has been begging for.
