Toronto-Based Electropop Trio FEATURETTE is Back With Their Cathartic New Single “Red Rover”

By: Staff –

Toronto-based alternative electronic trio, FEATURETTE are back with the release of their emboldened and cathartic new single “Red Rover”, available now on all platforms worldwide.

Written and produced by Lexie Jay, Jon Fedorsen and Marc Koecher in the band’s subterranean studio, Illegal Audio in Toronto, the track is the group’s first new music since the release of “Unluckiest” in October 2023.

“Someone told me they don’t even have to like us – fuck ‘em really I’d rather go by your highness… dumb.” Red Rover’s hook by Lexie Jay says it all. Being different wasn’t the goal in life or in art, but seemed to be the inescapable reality Lex continued to face in every stage of her life. Feeling like, or being labeled the black sheep of your family or your peers can be isolating, but embracing that energy and calling in your people was the healing elixir Lex found after too much time alone.

“Owning your narrative and flipping that energy on its head was a powerful step toward breaking that people-pleaser mentality” writes Lex. “The school-yard game ‘red rover’ is a call to that challenge – can you break through; can you snap the chain and make room for yourself?”

That’s exactly what FEATURETTE plans to do with their new energy, with sounds that continue to please yet push their sound yet again into new found territory. Red Rover takes you headfirst toward life and all its obstacles, and challenges you to breakthrough.
