As It Is have released a fab and honest single in Live, Laugh, Love, Los Angeles!
The track – which focuses on Patty’s American citizenship and relationship with the nation during the ongoing political strife – features on their new self-titled album (July 17).
The band said: “We weren’t planning on releasing another single before the album. In fact, this song wasn’t even on the original tracklisting.
“But, during album tracking in January 2026, the news and our social fees were flooded by the ICE raids across the USA. Multiple murders by ICE agents in Patty’s home state of Minnesota and almost one mass shooting per day. We watched the USA descend into violence whilst the ‘Rich Televangelist’ at the top stoked the fires further.
“The song was about Patty’s relationship with America and being an American in the current political climate, but with that added real world context it suddenly became even more urgent and essential, not only to the album but to the album campaign.
“As tensions continue to rise and the global resurgence of the far right continues, we felt that this song, its message and the video deserved their moment to be seen, heard and felt.
“Fuck Fascism.”
