Bobby's "Mixtape from that really weird friend"

March 29th, 2025

Multi-talented musician and artist Bobby Hackney Jr. has curated a set of songs aimed at capturing that magic of a mixtape from your "weird" friend in high school. We think he’s succeeded beautifully from the Stereolab opener to the Youth of Today closer, and with jumps across genres and decades in between. And if you're familiar with Bobby's own creative output, the range makes perfect sense — these days he's the frontman of Rough Francis and a graphic artist too, and his work has spanned a wide range of other bands and projects (and roles — from drummer to singer) including in The Static Age and many others.

You can listen to Bobby’s "Mixtape from that really weird friend" right here!
