Toronto-based indie rock outfit Housewife reveals their new single, "Fuck Around Phase," out now via Hazel Street Records. The new song reunites Fry with frequent co-writer and producer Gabe Simon (Lana Del Rey, Noah Kahan) in Nashville, TN and includes a co-write from fellow singer-songwriter Savana Santos.

Guided by a lush mix of distorted guitar riffs and pop-flavored melodies, "Fuck Around Phase" is a stealthily infectious song. "This song is about learning to enjoy yourself and be present after going through a difficult time," says Fry. "I want to embrace being messy and not take things too seriously!"
20-year-old Brighid Fry (she/they), aka Housewife, creates effervescent indie rock interwoven with timeless and perspective songwriting. Already touting several independent Canadian music awards for their previous releases, their most recent EP, ‘You’ll Be Forgiven,' received praise from outlets such as FLOOD Magazine, FLAUNT, BrooklynVegan, and more.
Housewife's music regularly touches on the experience of being a young, queer, AFAB person existing in a male-dominated industry. In addition to exploring these themes in their music, Fry is also an advocate for 2SLGBTQ+ rights, reproductive freedom, and environmentalism, proudly fighting for immediate government response to protect ecological catastrophes as a founding member of the Canadian chapter of Music Declares Emergency.
"Fuck Around Phase" is the first taste of new music from Housewife this year and introduces a more mature and intentional indie-rock driven sound, sonically and lyrically resonating with the sign of the times as we fight for equality and our future. Housewife’s new song is the perfect soundtrack for our generation as we catch our breaths and let loose in between fights.
