Fake Problems

Fake Problems is a rock and roll band from Naples, Florida. Releasing their first full length album 'How Far Our Bodies Go' in 2007, the band is most known for their album 'Real Ghosts Caught On Tape', released in 2010. Fake Problems is known for many credits in television, film, and commercial media, as well as an extensive tour history with many notable bands. In the years since Fake Problems last put out a full-length, vocalist Chris Farren has been pretty damn busy. Between his solo material, his work with Jeff Rosenstock in Antarctico Vespucci, and his cool T-shirt biz, the South Florida band that Farren played in with bassist Derek Perry (who has released music with his own project, Great Neck) and drummer Sean Stevenson has slowed down over the past few years: their last release was a 2013 split seven-inch alongside You Blew It! with the objectively wrong title of Florida Doesn't Suck. The inactivity isn't due to lack of effort, though. The band went into the studio with Grammy Award-winning producer Ted Hutt (The Gaslight Anthem, Flogging Molly) in 2013 and 2014, but the finished product didn't sit right with the band. "While we recorded some songs that we really loved, it didn’t feel like a complete and cohesive record," said Stevenson. "Without knowing what to do with the whole thing we kind of sat on it while everyone worked on other projects." Now, the band has decided to release some of the songs through a seven-inch series called Strange Emotions, the first of which is "Holy Attitude.” Farren said the title track, was originally intended for a compilation of songs inspired by Jack Kerouac's Tritessa. "I sent it to the people who asked and they said it wasn't specific enough," Farren recalled. "An example of a note they gave was, 'Can you change the line about playing the guitar to something about playing the bongos? Jack played the bongos, not guitar.' I politely declined and we decided to use it for this instead."
