Andy Frasco & The U.N. are serving up an electrifying anthem just in time for spring, releasing their soulful new single, “Swinging for the Fences,” featuring iconic collaborators G. Love and Eric Krasno. The track, off their upcoming album, Growing Pains (available May 23), is a fresh, funky exploration of love and optimism, wrapped in a Motown groove that feels effortlessly classic.
Frasco is known for blending humor and heart, and “Swinging for the Fences” highlights this strength, delivering a witty narrative about reaching for romance seemingly out of reach. The infectious lyric “Window shopping never got me anywhere / So I’m buying in and I’m flying in” captures the quirky charm fans have come to expect from Frasco.
G. Love praises Frasco’s charisma and musical talent, describing their collaboration as “next-level stuff,” with the inclusion of Eric Krasno adding layers of soulful guitar work. Krasno, whose credits include Lettuce and Tedeschi Trucks Band, notes the distinct fusion of Motown spirit with rock energy, cementing the track’s broad appeal.
The single joins previously released tracks “Try Not to Die” and “Crazy Things,” which collectively preview the eclectic and introspective direction of Growing Pains. The album, produced entirely by Frasco himself, promises deeper emotional depth without losing the raucous energy of their renowned live shows.
