Whitmer Thomas is maybe finest often called an actor-comedian, however he is holding the ball rolling along with his singer-songwriter profession. The Alabama native is following up final yr’s Tilt EP at present with the information that he is signed to the esteemed Hearth Speak Data. He is obtained a brand new single too, a drowsy indie-country lope known as “Sweet Corn” that finds him singing repeatedly about “the agony of ageing.” It is produced by the very busy Brad Cook dinner. Thomas explains, “That is my broadest try to put in writing about what youth felt like, wanting again as an ageing knucklehead.”
Within the “Sweet Corn” video, Thomas begins by filming fellow music-adjacent showbiz man Joe Pera listening to the track. The premise rapidly takes a flip when Pera’s longtime collaborator Carmen Christopher (The Bear, Killing It, Shrill, Search Occasion) steals Thomas’ telephone and goes on a tourism spree round New York Metropolis. Whereas largely enjoying the a part of the simply amused out-of-towner who’s by no means heard of Brooklyn and might’t consider he is in an actual New York bodega, he occurred to seize the real-life pandemonium surrounding the Knicks’ NBA championship.
