After announcing her signing to Hopeless Records in April, Brazilian punk-rocker Karen Dió has arrived with her new single, “Stupid.” Preceded by “Sick Ride” and “So Funny,” “Stupid” is set to appear on her forthcoming EP My World, available on October 25, via Hopeless Records.

The artist says, “‘My World’ sealed my comeback to the music industry, reassuring that here, making music, is where I belong. It’s the first music I wrote after a 2 year break. The songs are short, real, catchy, and straight to the point!”

She continues, “The title track has a mix of Joan Jett with a Veruca Salt. That song is about my realisation that music is what I am meant to be doing with my life. Whether it’s in front of 10,000 people or just alone in my room, I will still be writing songs. Stupid is one of my favourite songs on the EP. It rips. It has this 2000’s punk rock energy which I love. It’s about realising you had been naive and that you didn’t stand up for yourself in certain situations.”

Check out the modern riot grrrl track below.

Coming up in October, Dió is having her EP release show in London at The Old Blue Last. She says, “This will be my first headline show outside of Brazil which is huge for me, and I’m preparing it to be a really fun one. I’ll be playing not only music from the ‘My World’ EP but also some new unreleased songs. I couldn’t be more excited about it!” Secure your tickets here.
