The last time we’d heard On The Outside was back in July last year, when they covered the Jedward song, ‘How Did You Know<\/a>‘, which appeared on the Irish duo’s 2012 album, ‘Young Love’. Now On The Outside return with their new single, ‘Why Me’, out 12 June.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The track is the latest in the band’s releases which blend pop with a little bit of country – without completely tipping into Americana territory. Comprising Andrew Bloom, Dawson Huckabee, Devin Hayes, Jon Klaasen and Sam Jenkins, On The Outside is a Los Angeles-based group, and with their signature harmonies tying the song altogether, they give a classic nod to other groups which could be categorised as “boy bands”, such as Backstreet Boys. Written by a host of writers comprising Mike Shimshack (known for his work with Britney Spears), Kyle Kelso (Kygo), and Tina Parol (Sabrina Carpenter), the song comes with a music video directed by \u00c9li Sokhn, who has also worked with Why Don’t We.<\/p>\n

Shot in a warehouse in what looks like Los Angeles’ fashion district, the video is a showcase of both the band’s individual vocal talents, and also their dance skills. It allows their personalities to shine through, and the upbeat song will have you bopping along – whether it be dancing around the room, or as I did, in my chair. It’s a catchy tune, and should see On The Outside soon find their way in to the inside.<\/p>\n

On The Outside have been declared the “Official Boyband of TikTok”, and have had more than 2 billion views across their band, and personal pages, on the platform.<\/p>\n
