NASHVILLE, Tenn. (October 21, 2026 ) ... Nashville pop punk band Keep Warm is releasing "Like You (feat. Relient K)" Friday, October 23, with Matthew Thiessen, frontman of the Grammy-nominated band behind Mmhmm, Five Score and Seven Years Ago and "Be My Escape," on vocals.
For Keep Warm, the feature is a full-circle moment. The band's sound grew out of the same melodic, energetic pop punk that Relient K carried from Christian rock into the mainstream in the 2000s. "Like You" puts the two on the same track.
The song was written by Keep Warm's Kevin Campbell with Sam Barnhart, a founding member of '90s rock band Bleach, and Warren David. It came out of two big life moments landing at the same time. Kevin had just gotten married. Sam was about to become a grandfather, with his son expecting a baby boy.
The players behind it carry their own pop punk lineage. Drums are by Atom Willard, a founding member of Angels & Airwaves alongside blink-182's Tom DeLonge, whose run also includes The Offspring, Rocket from the Crypt, Against Me! and Alkaline Trio. Atom also spent time as Weezer's drum tech, which closes another loop for a band that names blink182 and Weezer as its blueprint.
The track was produced by Carter Frodge (MercyMe, Tenth Avenue North, Laura Story), a former touring pop punk musician who also plays piano and synth on the song. It was mixed by three-time Grammy-nominated engineer Doug Weier, who has 21 Billboard No. 1 singles to his name, and mastered by Grammy-nominated Mike Cervantes of The Foxboro, whose credits include Kane Brown, Lauren Daigle and Avril Lavigne.
"Like You" is the latest from Keep Warm, following the band's 2024 debut "Power Wagon" and 2025's EP "Terminals."
