Tony & the Kiki have unveiled their debut EP, FUCQ (Vol. 1), a five-track release that fuses glam-rock swagger with disco-infused pop and queer-forward energy. The EP is a vibrant, theatrical statement, blending retro guitar-driven textures with modern production, delivering a sound that is at once nostalgic and distinctly contemporary.
Standout tracks include ‘Keep Shinin’ On’ which anchors the EP with driving pedal bass and anthemic hooks, and ‘HOLY XTC’, a genre-bending single that combines gritty CBGB-era rock with Studio 54–style dance grooves while exploring personal heartbreak with a playful edge. ‘get OUT or get ON’ rounds out the collection with bold harmonies and catchy melodies, capturing the band’s flair for theatricality and infectious pop sensibility.
FUCQ (Vol. 1) demonstrates Tony & the Kiki’s ability to merge rock, pop, and queer-glam aesthetics into a cohesive, energetic package. With viral momentum, over 288k followers across social media, growing streams, and sold-out shows, the EP positions the band as one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary queer rock.
This fall, the band continues their live momentum with appearances at Palm Springs Pride and their EP launch show at NYC’s Mercury Lounge on December 3rd.
