The Pier’s latest Song of the Week spotlight heads to Little Stranger, who team up with Andy Frasco & The U.N. for their new single “Love You When I’m Sad,” now featured on this week’s Skratch N Sniff ALT Radio broadcast.
Blending indie, alternative, and hip-hop influences with a loose, feel-good energy, the track captures the off-kilter emotional honesty that has defined Little Stranger’s rise. With Andy Frasco in the mix, the record leans even further into that chaotic, soulful edge, balancing humor, vulnerability, and groove all at once.
“Love You When I’m Sad” marks the first single from Little Stranger’s upcoming 2026 album, set to release via Ineffable Records, signaling the start of a major year for the duo.
That momentum is already building. The group is slated for a packed festival run including appearances at Bonnaroo, Reggae Rise Up Florida, Reggae Rise Up Arizona, SweetWater 420 Fest, Northlands Music & Arts Festival, and Everwild, with a headlining tour expected to follow alongside the album release.
As part of The Pier and Skratch N Sniff’s ongoing collaboration, “Love You When I’m Sad” is featured across this week’s national ALT mix, airing on stations nationwide.
