Frank Mighty is back—and he’s not here to dwell on the past. The Syrian-Canadian indie rocker, known for his shimmering psych-pop textures and sly lyrical wit, returns this August with Been Done, the infectious first single from his forthcoming debut album.
“I was sick of so many songs singing about the same thing,” Frank says. “Every song for a while had the word ‘nostalgia’ in the title—I just wanted to make a fun, upbeat tune that gripes about how nothing feels original anymore. It’s all been done.” And that’s exactly what Been Done delivers: a punchy, hook-laced track that calls out the copy-paste cycles of culture—both in music and beyond. It’s sonically sunny, but underneath the groove is a sharp edge. The second verse was born after Frank was abruptly let go from his job. “The cold, corporate way they handled it—it was so cut-copy-paste. That inspired a lot of the lyricism.”
Musically, it’s a confident leap forward from his earlier work. His debut EP Whispersongs (2021) turned heads with production from Grammy winner Jacquire King and earned placements on Netflix’s Ginny & Georgia. His 2023 EP Never Homesick channeled life on the road and sold-out shows into indie anthems like “Unattainable.” Then came Nexterday in 2024, landing him playlist love and a spot opening for Quinn XCII. But with Been Done, Frank is setting the tone for a whole new chapter. “It’s lyrically the song I’m most proud of—I even mention the Rockies, which is a nod to my Alberta roots.”
The single will be accompanied by a full visual rollout including a music video directed by Kyle Berger (MorMor, Geese, Casey Neistat), plus 60 days’ worth of compelling short-form content: DIY iPhone edits, behind-the-scenes from the shoot, GRWM clips, live performance footage, and more. It’s a layered, self-aware campaign that builds a world around the song while staying authentically Frank.
