Elio Ricca — Misfit

"I wanna call all my friends every day, I wanna be happy when I say." With Misfit, Elio Ricca speaks to the strange loneliness of modern life. It's a song about the lonely dancers in the mosh pit—about the people who step out of line, the ones who actually make a difference.

Driven by a shimmering, hypnotic guitar riff, a voice that feels like it's speaking directly to you, and massive, slow-burning drums, Misfit captures the contradiction between vulnerability and rebellion, between lipstick and mosh pits. Without following any rules, Elio Ricca embraces that tension, finding freedom in the beauty of not fitting in. Marking the first single from his upcoming EP, Misfit is an indie rock anthem for anyone who's ever felt like they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
