Watch the video for Michael Clifford’s debut solo single, cool

After teasing the project last week, Michael Clifford has officially released his first solo single.

Entitled cool, the debut effort from the 5 Seconds Of Summer guitarist – which was also co-written by 5SOS’ Calum Hood – “speaks for itself”, says Michael.

He continues: “My hope is that when fans hear the lyrics, they’ll understand me and hopefully themselves a little better. I’ve been deliberating on this music long enough, so I can’t wait for everybody to hear it – and cool is just the beginning of what’s to come. I want this project to make people smile. I’m just out here doing a bunch of sidequests. Now that I’m a dad, everything other than that feels like a sidequest!”

Speaking of which, Michael’s debut album SIDEQUEST is ‘coming soon’ via Hopeless Records. Until then, watch the video for cool below:
