The middle child of the album, the fifth single, “Dinosaur Bones & Petrified Wood” started out as a joke that turned into a crowd favorite. Demanded at every show as the crowds yell HUNNY together. It is an anthem for letting things go and not taking life too seriously, because just like Dinosaur Bones & Petrified Wood- ourselves and our worries will all be dust one day.
A Happy Tune
Don’t Worry Be Happy / Every Little Thing Gonna Be Alright / Octopus’s Garden - there’s something freeing and so helpful to navigating life when you have a little melody that can be hummed or sung to make us feel better. It raises our vibration. My hope is that by the time this song is over, you’ll be yell-singing HUNNY all day long!

Word on the Street
"It captures that exact feeling of letting go and refusing to be defined by anything that tries to hold you back."
"The track delivers a message of resilience and self-belief, combining a driving, rock-leaning edge with an uplifting, anthemic feel."
"Stokes sounds extremely sincere, and the performance has a rawness and an almost filmic quality. You can hear the tension between being weak and being strong, like every line is pushing back on what it’s allowed to do."
"From those ashes rises “I’ll Still Hold Up,” a psychedelic-leaning anthem co-written with Hannah Johnsonand produced by Analog MP3.It carries the swagger of resilience, channeling a scrappy, tomboy energy that refuses to stay down."
