LA Band Garbagebarbie Drops Flirty Garage-Pop Summer Anthem “Kiss”

Need the perfect soundtrack for your messy city romance? Look no further.

Los Angeles band garbagebarbie just unleashed "kiss"—a garage-pop gem that’s basically made for those slow-mo movie moments when you’re walking through sunlight, thinking about someone who probably doesn’t text back fast enough.

This track comes loaded with attitude toward L.A.’s notorious dating circus. The infectious alt-pop melody weaves through punchy guitar riffs and indie sleaze vibes that’ll have you obsessively hitting repeat.

It’s one of those songs that gets stuck in your brain—especially when you’re getting ready, staring at yourself in the mirror while applying that perfect shade of lipstick. Sharp and melodic, "kiss" lingers long after the last note fades.

Over the past couple years, garbagebarbie has been making serious waves in LA’s DIY underground. Their themed shows are legendary—often free, always rowdy, consistently packing 400+ people into spots like The Paramount, The Echo, and Non Plus Ultra.

First time hearing about garbagebarbie? Their sound is like a perfectly mixed cocktail: Britpop meets glam, punk crashes into French disco, all stirred up with garage rock energy. One listen and you’ll be kicking yourself for not discovering them sooner.
