New Radicals Release First Songs in 25 Years ‘in the Spirit of Artists Supporting Democracy’


Famed 1990s group New Radicals has released its first songs in 25 years in an effort to support democracy.

“In the spirit of artists supporting democracy, and for our fans, my bandmate Danielle and I are soft-launching what was nearly New Radicals’ late ’90s debut single, ‘Murder on the Dancefloor,'” says Alexander in a statement to Variety. And [we released] our version of ‘Lost Stars’ to celebrate the news Adam Levin’s friends, Train, are adapting our Oscar-nominated ‘Begin Again’ hit music and some of theirs for John Carney’s Broadway follow-up to ‘Once. Alexander also published an open letter to Doug Emhoff on Billboard in tandem with the songs, explaining that releasing them 25 years after dissolving the band was in an attempt to share his political stance and encourage other artists to vote.
