Alt-Rock Group Pep Squad Brings on Wild Energy in New Video for 'Little Game'
Los Angeles based group Pep Squad are heading into this year with a splash. Following the premiere on Bad Copy of their newest video "Little Game," the track was finally released on all DSPs.
With a vibrant and lively video, "Little Game" sees the band dive into their punk and alternative roots while also drawing from hip hop influences that line up perfectly with the rock groove of the track. The band's mission for this video was to create something that would emulate the fun they had while shooting the video:
"With the 'Little Game' music video, we wanted to lean into a similar vibe that we were inspired by when we wrote the song. We looked to Missy Elliot, late 90's and early 2000's hip hop videos, and mixed in our riot girl, punk rock energy. We worked with the director Fre Angel to create something that was sinister, playful, and over the top. The whole shoot was a blast to film, everyone went for it and that feeling of cartoonish uninhibited fun really shines through on the screen. Cheerleaders, clowns, demented 50's family, big gold chains, it was a no rules good time," Pep Squad said.
