Surfbort Goes Mustard Wild in Hot Dog Music Video

Just days before dropping their third full-length album, Surfbort threw their devoted fanbase a bone. A tantalizing glimpse of what’s brewing.

"Hot Dog" crashes gritty garage-rock into egg punk’s twisted sense of humor. It’s messy, it’s brilliant.

The track leans heavy into electronic production while lead vocalist Dani Miller delivers casual spoken-word magic over pounding rhythms. Searing guitar licks punctuate her delivery, setting up the kind of profound lyricism that naturally follows opening with "I was doin’ the worm, all over town."

Director Pooneh Ghana crafted visuals that open with Dani strolling down LA’s residential streets—walking a hot dog on a chain like it’s the most normal thing in the world. The aesthetic absurdity just keeps climbing from there.

Jesse Rutherford, Zumi, and a parade of other recognizable faces make appearances throughout. Because why not?
