Emo/pop punk rockers Riley! release new single "Two Bucks" featuring Eric Egan

South Texas emo/pop punk rockers Riley! have released their latest single, “Two Bucks,” featuring Eric Egan of Heart Attack Man. The song is streaming now and appears on the band’s forthcoming EP, To Live And Die In The American South, out July 17, 2026 via Pure Noise Records.

“Two Bucks” finds Riley! leaning into melody and high, soaring harmonies while still holding onto the anxious, heart-on-sleeve energy that runs through the band’s best work. The track reflects on the strange tradeoff of touring: missing pieces of home life while still finding purpose in connecting with people through music.
