GTFOH is all about reclaiming your power; the sophomore EP from Brooklyn-based alt rock group LEONE is ultimately a comment on the times that we’re living in. In a world that is constantly trying to beat us down, LEONE hopes that GTFOH will serve as a reminder to stand up for what you believe in and fight for your life.

The EP covers a lot of emotional ground, ranging from feelings of angst and loss, to lust and sexuality. Speaking candidly about these topics on the new songs is one way in which LEONE is reclaiming their power.

Produced by Peter Savad, GTFOH is the first piece of work from LEONE that features bassist Tarik Merzouk and drummer Brian Del Guercio on the recordings. Many songs on this EP were written during the same time that LEONE’s full band lineup was taking shape, which allowed the band to find their sound in a very collaborative and organic way. Lyrically, this EP showcases the growth and healing that songwriter Richie Leone has had since the band’s first EP (thisbodyisntmine), released in June 2022.
