On its debut album, 'Girls at Parties,' Little Fuss brings to life complex female characters in songs designed to fill a stadium.
The title of Little Fuss’ album, “Girls at Parties,” is a deliberate sleight-of-hand. At first blush, it’s easy to imagine a spring-break-like milieu seen through the eyes of a young man. The girls are the objects of his desire, his fantasy, his yearning. But scratch the surface and you’ll find, instead, a collection of songs written from the perspective of the girls.
The trick is to find a way to pack these complex, politically-charged ideas into a perfect gem of a pop song — a talent for which Little Fuss is fast becoming recognized. The group, whose members have yet to graduate from college, has already been nominated for a Boston Music Award and is set to perform at Boston Calling, the city’s biggest music festival. Both milestones were achieved before the band even released “Girls at Parties,” its debut album, in January.
His carelessness turned out to be kismet. Martinez had also checked the box to go to Valencia — albeit with more intention — and the two immediately clicked. During this time they tinkered with their sound. Von Lehmden and Martinez describe themselves as fans of classic rock — they cite The Doors as a big influence — but their desire to speak to contemporary music pushed them toward electro-pop. The pair released their first EP as Little Fuss, “Hazy,” in 2021.
For Von Lehmden, the goal — and the challenge — is to pen something instantly recognizable without succumbing to cliché. “I've been in other bands before and I'm usually the only woman,” she says. “So it's great to not only be playing these songs about this stuff, but also the band lineup reflects that, too.”
