Snooper shared “Pom Pom,” the third single/video from their new album, Worldwide, out 3rd October on Third Man Records.
Snooper – rounded out by bassist Happy Haugen, drummer Brad Barteau, and guitarist Conner Sullivan – recorded Worldwide with John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten, Angel Olsen, Explosions in the Sky). Though Snooper had never previously considered working with a producer, Congleton was a fan and the band reflects on the process as being integral to their growth as artists. “The whole idea behind this record was experimentation and change”, Cummins says.
Commenting on the track, vocalist Blair Tramel says: “‘Pom Pom’ is about being your own cheerleader, a topic that is explored throughout the whole record. It’s about having to sit on the sidelines sometimes, supporting others, taking hits, and bouncing back. After cheering for other people for long enough, you reach a point where you learn to cheer for yourself as well. While self confidence is important, you also have to be able to laugh at yourself. Honestly, if you can’t laugh at yourself, you might have some work to do — GO TEAM!!!!”
