Professional skater Tony Hawk's son Riley Hawk has a band called Warish and they're really good! The band is now streaming their single "S.H.M. (Second Hand Misery)" featuring tons of nostalgia fodder, including Barney the purple dinosaur.
Riley said the Barney theme in the video is inspired by "If You’re Happy And You Know It", which he feels is a pretty sinister-sounding song.
“This video came to mind when I heard ‘If You’re Happy And You Know It’ by Barney playing somewhere and I was in a bad mood and was thinking ‘this song is kinda evil sounding.’ Then I went home and instantly started editing the video to the track ‘S.H.M.’ because it’s the polar opposite. It fitted nicely I thought.”
Warish will release Next To Pay on April 30. Pre-orders are available here.
