VIENNA VIENNA UNLEASHES RIOTOUS NEW SINGLE “CASHGRAB”
“Vienna Vienna is unapologetically himself in his music, infusing vibrant energy into his relatable, anthemic lyrics.” - CONSEQUENCE
“Vienna Vienna’s sound is melody-forward, built on a foundation of shimmering reverb, electric guitar riffs full of personality, and juicy hooks lathered in witty playfulness, and ultimately, empowerment.” - ALT PRESS
Los Angeles, CA - June 4, 2025 - Rising Glimmer Rock artist Vienna Vienna is back with his latest offering, “Cashgrab.” Out today via PULSE Records and Pete Wentz’s DCD2 Records, the track, accompanied by an official music video, is bold, unfiltered, and pure rock’n’roll served with a wink and a snarl.
A rowdy, no-holds-barred track, “Cashgrab” crashes in with fuzzy guitars, pulsing drums, and boisterous keys, anchored by an infectious, sneering chorus. Vienna Vienna’s vocal performance spans from deadpan monotone to raspy, punk-inspired shouting, injecting bite into the track’s tongue-in-cheek lyricism and unapologetic energy.
When asked about the inspiration behind the song, Vienna Vienna mused, “Conspiracy and surrealism over a groove so tight it’s pretty much fatal. Plus, it rips. In session I asked, ‘how would it feel to fuck your landlord?’ Like this. Like a cashgrab. Let the people dance!!!!”
“Cashgrab” lands following Vienna Vienna’s standout set this past week at Pittsburgh Pride and WeHo Pride, and a national tour with K.Flay earlier this year, where fans got an early taste of the track’s chaotic energy. The new single builds on the momentum of previous releases including his viral, unapologetic Queer anthem, “God Save The Queens,” and 2024 debut EP Wonderland. With each new release Vienna Vienna continues to carve out his space as one of alt-rock’s most exciting and unpredictable new voices.
In addition, Vienna Vienna announced a 3-date California headline tour with an artist presale launching Thursday at 10am PT, and general on-sale Friday at 10am PT. Tickets / info can be found here: https://www.viennaviennamusic.com/

ABOUT VIENNA VIENNA:
Vienna Vienna is always waiting for his next chance to take the stage, to electrify the audience with glimmer rock: performance is an essential part of the equation. The multi-instrumentalist sees performing as “a chance at vulnerability without all the pressure.” His debut EP Wonderland reflects his journey with queerness and self-acceptance, creating a space of shared catharsis at his shows. Growing up anxious and conflicted about his identity, Vienna Vienna found solace in music, which evolved from a coping tool into a means of self-expression and self-love. Now signed to PULSE Records and co-released by Pete Wentz’s label DCD2, Wonderland blends ‘00s pop-punk, queer pop, and soft-rock ballads, celebrating strangeness and authenticity.
