Basic Bitches announce new album It Doesn’t Matter If It’s Cool; share Grey Gardens-inspired video for lead single ‘Start The World’

Upstate NY’s premiere riot grrrl rock ‘n’ roll band, Basic Bitches, are excited to share ‘Start the World,’ the lead track from their forthcoming album, It Doesn’t Matter If It’s Cool, which was recorded by J Robbins (Jawbox, Burning Airlines), due for release April 7. The track is accompanied by a video, directed by the band themselves, and inspired by the classic documentary Grey Gardens (1975).

The song describes the desire to return to normalcy after the solitude of COVID lockdowns and the video depicts band members Naomi Scott and Krystal Grow as Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier Beale, recreating scenes from Grey Gardens, perhaps the ultimate story of two women who could do with leaving the house once in a while.

The band shares: “Working with J.Robbins was a dream come true, he even joined us on Start the World playing tambourine!”
