The Linda Lindas share Duranguense-inspired new single ‘Yo Me Estreso’ featuring “Weird Al” Yankovich
The Linda Lindas have shared a new single called ‘Yo Me Estreso’, featuring “Weird Al” Yankovic. Listen below.
The song is the latest preview of the Los Angeles band’s second studio album ‘No Obligation’, which is due for release on October 11 via Epitaph (pre-order/pre-save here). Previous track ‘All In My Head’ arrived last month.
‘Yo Me Estreso’ sees The Linda Lindas team up with US comedy musician “Weird Al” Yankovich, who played accordion on the single. He also stars in the novelty, circus-themed music video for the song.
In a statement, guitatist/vocalist Bela Salazar explained: ‘Yo Me Estreso’ is a song about always being stressed, always being anxious and thinking that people are mad at you when they really aren’t.
“It was inspired by listening to a lot of corridos tumbados, banda and Duranguense and doing that in our own punk style.”

The forthcoming ‘No Obligation’ will also feature the previous singles ‘Resolution/Revolution’ and ‘Too Many Things’, both of which came out last year. See the full tracklist below.
The Linda Lindas are currently opening for Green Day on the trio’s North American ‘Saviors’ tour alongside The Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid. They’ll be playing some headline dates throughout the trek too (find ticket details here).
Last month, The Linda Lindas supported The Rolling Stones at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California.
The band released their debut studio album, ‘Growing Up’, in 2022. In a four-star review, NME wrote: “What The Linda Lindas show us here could go a long way, even for those who think they’re done with growing up.”
