Just over seven years ago, Fancy Hagood (the artist formerly known as Who Is Fancy) unveiled his identity on late night television, and last night he marked his return with a transformative appearance on Full Frontal with Samantha Bee performing his poignant latest release “Bored”. WATCH HERE.
“Bored” serves as a commentary on the glamorized way we view the world and the image we create for ourselves, and how we often hide the struggles and truth beneath. Last night’s performance is a reinventing moment for the now independent artist who recently wrapped a run of tour dates with Elle King, and launched his own show Trailblazers Radio on Apple Music (recent guests include Kacey Musgraves, Orville Peck & Noah Cyrus).
A trippy animated video for “Bored” also dropped recently, aesthetically akin to some of the biggest shows of the late 1990s/early 2000s (think Daria to Beavis and Butthead) and featuring a young Fancy in his bedroom processing the world around him and nodding to the pop-culture staples that defined his upbringing.
There is much more to come from the reinvented songwriting superstar in the near future as well including a forthcoming album. Additional details to follow.
