Nashville’s Be Your Own Pet made a triumphant return to both the stage and airwaves, earlier this year, after nearly 15 years apart.

The new track, “Goodtime!”, highlights the struggle of balancing two kids, a mortgage, and the desire for BYOP to make a comeback.

“Goodtime is about those moments where the responsibility of adulthood overwhelms you, and you wonder "how the fuck did i get here?!" You find yourself longing for the days of partying with abandon, not worrying if the babysitter is going to cancel, and jealous of your friends who are still living the carefree life. Mom's just want to have fun too," says vocalist Pearl Abegg.

"Goodtime!” follows the critically-acclaimed “Hand Grenade”, and the more recent “Worship the Whip”. The video for “Goodtime!” was filmed across the band’s three sold-out shows in London earlier this month, and gives a sneak peek into a Be Your Own Pet performance.

The band have also announced a string of UK and EU live dates across August.

"Goodtime!" is out now. Mommy arrives on 25 August via Third Man Records.
