ATO Records’ buzzing Chicago five-piece Brigitte Calls Me Baby has released a new video today for The Future Is Our Way Out track “Too Easy.” The video for “Too Easy” follows the release of the band’s debut album and biggest show to date at Lollapalooza Chicago making fans of Rolling Stone, Forbes, SPIN, and more along the way.
With “Too Easy” the band slips into a moment of new-wave majesty built on skittering guitar tones and darkly throbbing beats, with Leavins’ voice taking on a near-operatic grandeur as he questions the reliability of memory and the durability of love.

Praise for The Future Is Our Way Out has poured in from NPR, FLOOD, WXPN, and NME, who said the band has “carved out a triumph of their own.” In a recent feature for DIY Magazine lead singer Wes Leavins speaks to the band’s desire to create a moment in time that lasts forever. The magazine adds, “‘The Future Is Our Way Out’, then, is his way of preserving particular feelings as immutable sonic vignettes, bottling transient moments in a way that recalls the best of coming-of-age media: The Perks Of Being A Wallflower’s tunnel scene; The Breakfast Club’s end credits; his teenage favorite lyricist Alex Turner’s evocative turn of phrase.” Read the full story here.
Brigitte Calls Me Baby is gaining momentum on the national TV front too following their national TV debut on CBS Saturday with their late-night TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live last month performing album track “We Were Never Alive.”
This Saturday, September 7th, the band will kick off a string of headlining tour dates with stops in New York, Austin, D.C., Nashville, and more before a series of shows with the Airborne Toxic Event continuing into the fall.
