Dead Pony are entering into a new chapter and has announced their EP Eat My Dust! will be set for release on 15th May 2026 via ADA.
Known for their high-energy sound and genre-blending style. Fronted by the powerhouse vocals of Anna Shields, alongside Blair Crichton (guitar), Liam Adams (bass), and Euan Lyons (drums), Dead Pony fuse elements of alt-rock, punk, and nu-metal into a sound that is both raw and infectious. The EP will be their first body of work since the release of their 2024 debut album, Ignore This which received critical acclaim and found them nominated for Scottish Album Of The Year and independent charting success
Alongside the announcement comes their second single ‘Freak Like Me’
“Freak Like Me is a love letter to the outsiders in society – the ones who never quite fit the mould and stopped trying to. It’s about owning every bizarre, messy, sexy, beautiful part of who you are, and finding your people in that chaos.” says singer Anna Sheilds. “I was really inspired by the energy of The Priory bar Glasgow, where we used to hang out and play our first gigs – sweaty, loud, full of young musicians and misfits just being unapologetically themselves. There was this unspoken understanding that no one had to pretend. That’s the spirit I wanted to bottle in this track — a space where being a ‘freak’ isn’t just accepted; it’s celebrated.”
Talking on the forthcoming EP, singer Anna Sheilds and Producer/Guitarist Blair Crichton
say “We’re stepping into a whole new era of Dead Pony — one that feels bigger, bolder, and more unapologetically us than anything we’ve ever done before. We’ve pulled heavily from our early 2000s influences, but this isn’t about looking back — it’s about reshaping that nostalgia into something that feels fresh, unpredictable, and completely our own.”
“More than anything, we wanted this EP to be a statement. There’s chaos and energy running through every track, but underneath it is a band pushing themselves to evolve. We’ve gone further with our songwriting, taken more risks in the studio, and allowed ourselves to experiment in ways we never have before. This is us stepping outside our comfort zone and fully committing to it.”
