Feel like you can’t stop messing up? Embarrassed to exist? Oh Bummer! knows how you feel.
“Stupid” showcases Oh Bummer!’s quintessential sound — a blend of bedroom pop, anti-pop, and trip-hop inspired beats. The single, released by Tanner Houghton’s solo project, hits the mark on quality music just right for those who feel like misfits.
And, of course, “Stupid” has a music video to match. The music vide
This song is inspired by a lifelong battle with impulsiveness and embarrassment. Whether or not alcohol is involved, I’ve had a knack for being a big dummy. Sometimes my anxiety puts me into autopilot, and unfortunately, my autopilot has no filter and terrible comedic timing.

“Stupid” has a subtle groove that has you swaying along, adding a more laid-back vibe to edgier lyrics. The artist’s witty wordplay is far from “Stupid,” sounding playful while packing a punch with themes of self-deprecation and figuring out how to cope.
The Seattle-born, LA-based artist’s first solo project comes after a career full of punk bands, pop groups, and more. Oh Bummer!’s freshly released EP To Be A Part of the World is a goldmine of good listens — songs Tanner says are “a conglomeration of [his] depression and ADHD thoughts — the diary of an overthinker.” If you’re a new fan, don’t worry because Oh Bummer! also has a 2022 EP, Losing Sunlight to listen to, too. We can’t wait to hear what’s next.
Oh Bummer! says on TikTok, “I make music for the FREAKS and WEIRDOS.” and I’m sold.
