Read our Q&A with frontman Jordan Daly below!
Your latest single ‘2000 Cans’ took off online, was this planned or a happy accident? What was the creative process like for the track?
Jordan Daly: It really did take off online! We never really expected it to, if I'm honest, we just fit in on TikTok by making the dubbed 'Midwest Limmy' videos and people really enjoyed them. We didn't have any real plans for releasing the song until after a few TikTok's showed there was a demand for it which we really appreciated.
There wasn't too much of a creative process to this song, it came together really quickly, like within an hour we had the song written, it was really fast but we all fell in love with it instantly!
If you could choose any artist to collaborate with, who would it be?
I think we all have different takes on who we'd like to collaborate with, but I think we would all be stoked to have someone like Tades from Hot Mulligan scream on some of our tracks!
Tell us your three desert island albums.

A Present for Everyone - Busted
What show has been your highlight this year?
Highlight of the year would have to be getting to share the stage with Magnolia Park, they are a band we are all massive fans of and couldn't believe we got the opportunity to open for them.
If you could share a message to other Scottish artists, what would it be?
Keep doing what you're doing, everyone loves Scottish bands, don't give up just keep faking it till you make it.
What can we expect from WRTHLESS in the future?
Lots more catchy songs, more big shouts, and perhaps more Midwest Limmy.
