Yuck frontman announces new side project, Oupa

Yuck singer Daniel Blumberg is a pretty busy guy. Having just released his main band, Yuck’s, debut album just a few weeks ago and touring it consistently before and after, you wouldn’t really expect him to have had time to put into anything else. However, he has proven us wrong.

Blumberg will release a new album called Forget in June under the name Oupa. The album will have seven tracks on it, one of which, the title track, you can stream right below. Judging from “Forget,” Oupa will be a much more relaxed and reflective affair than Yuck or even Blumberg’s previous band Cajun Dance Party.
