Tim Heidecker released a new single, “Punch In The Gut.” The song will appear on the renowned comedian, actor and musician’s upcoming album, High School, arriving on June 24 via Spacebomb Records.
Tim Heidecker co-produced High School with Fruit Bats’ Eric D. Johnson, Mac DeMarco and Drew Erickson. The collaborators recorded the album at DeMarco’s studio. Tim previously released the single “Buddy” and now follows with “Punch In The Gut.”
“This one started while thinking about how Warren Zevon might approach a high school parking lot, high noon style showdown,” Heidecker said of the new single. “But as I worked it, I recalled an incident where a friend of mine was visiting my school and was falsely accused of stealing. He was Black and it felt like profiling to me. There’s a lot of him in the song ‘Buddy’ too.”
