Classless Act Team With The Darkness’ Justin Hawkins on New Song ‘This Is For You’
Classless Act are kicking off 2022 with a little bit of flash. The band just dropped their new single "This Is for You" via Better Noise Music and this foot-stomping rocker comes with a guest turn from The Darkness' Justin Hawkins laying down a ripping guitar solo.
"It’s a dream come true for Classless Act to be a part of the Better Noise family. And the boys and I have been working really hard to give you something to shake your ass to," says frontman Derek Day. "Now, summer’s here and the time is right for a couple of guitars, some bass and drums and a whole buncha me. Let’s get to it!!”
Hawkins says of his guest turn, “One Tuesday night in February I gazed up onto the Swiss night sky. There, to my surprise I witnessed the beaming of The Hawk signal onto a passing cloud. After months of inactivity, I was called into action. My mission? To provide a face melting guitar solo to Classless Act’s ‘This is For You.’ I grasped my Gibson 335, headed into the hawk cave and within 24 hours the solo was born.”
The new song comes with a video as well. The clip serves as part two in a four-part series that loosely follows the band as they set the soundtrack for the misadventures of Farley; an unlucky soul who just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Watch the John Orphan-directed video below, and if you like what you hear, the song is available here.

"This Is For You" is targeted for the band's Better Noise Records debut that's expected later this year. Classless Act will also have a prime spotlight this summer, opening dates on the Motley Crue, Def Leppard and Poison Stadium Tour. This comes after the band plays a spring trek with Dorothy.
