Overview
- The group released "One Night Only (Break Loose Break Free!)" on Friday as part of a portion of the film's soundtrack that became available ahead of the movie.
- Gregg Alexander and longtime collaborator Danielle Brisebois co-wrote and performed the track with guitarist and co-writer Nick Lashley.
- Critics and outlets describe the song as punchy, piano-driven pop-rock with spoken-word bits that recall the band's 1998 sound.
- The song is the theme for Will Gluck’s rom-com One Night Only, which stars Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner and arrives in U.S. theaters on August 7 and in the U.K. on August 28.
- The release ties into Alexander's ongoing songwriting work and recent New Radicals rerecordings and reunions, and it may boost interest in the film while renewing attention on Alexander and his collaborators.
