Girl Scout, one of our emerging artists to watch in 2026, have revealed their new song “Operator.”
Serving as the second single off their upcoming debut album Brink, “Operator” is a fuzzier, spunkier turn than prior single “Same Kids.” Vocalist Emma Jansson provides plenty of urgency and irreverence as she dreams about a handsome operator on the other line, chiming in with “beep beep”s and flying through the chorus in a passionate, descending whine. All the while, the band bring energy and playfulness to their lively indie rock sound. Stream “Operator” below.
“It’s really just a dumb song, isn’t it?” Jansson said about the track in a press release. “A dumb guitar riff, dumb lyrics and a dumb beat, and we love it just the way it is. I have no idea where the inspiration behind the lyrics came from, I have no relationship to switchboard operators and they haven’t been around since before I was born. But wouldn’t it be fun if they were still around and they sounded really hot over the phone?”
