Fresh out of Chicago's West Loop neighborhood, emerging EDM outfit Krewella are prepping for the release of their debut EP, the aptly titled Play Hard, on June 18th. The EP will feature breakout hit "Killin' It," plus five other aspiring club anthems highlighting the trio's trademark female vocals and dubstep-styled beats. As beatmaker Kris Trindl puts it, "If it's between 100BPM to 170 BPM, we'll figure out a way to make it work and have a good time with it."

Play Hard will be available on June 18th through Beatport and on June 26th on iTunes. In the meantime, you can stream the full EP here and check out the group's upcoming tour dates below.

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
