Thea Austin - We're Not Going Back

FEEDBACK PLEASE!!!

Platinum Recording Artist THEA AUSTIN collaborates with LGBTQ Trailblazing Entertainer KAREL on new powerful Anthem “We’re Not Going Back!”

REMIXES BY: RAFAEL M • DJ WICK • MATT MOSS • HOUSE OF FRAPPIER

Who would have thought that in 2025 with all the progress marginalized communities have made in America and the world in the last 20 years, that one world leader and his followers could set America and the world back so severely and so quickly. In a matter of 100 days, whole segments of the LGBTQAI+ community are being erased from books, monuments, and websites, while the working classes that make this country run are being arrested, deported, or just erased. Thea Austin declares “We’re Not Going Back!”

Written by Karel and produced and performed by Thea Austin, the voice of multiple club generations including  Snap’s “Rhythm is The Dancer,”  Soulsearcher's ‘Can’t Get Enough” and Pusaka "You’re the Worst Thing for Me” just to name a few, “We’re Not Going Back"was inspired by Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign of joy and hope.

Boldly produced pop at its finest, the original version is lyrically thought provoking and musically infectious. With outstanding mixes on offer from DJ Wick, House of Frappier, Rafael M, and Matt Moss, this track is set to light up dance floors and playlists alike. From the mid-tempo R&B heavy DJ Wick Roller Skate Club perfect for poolside and radio play, the two hands-in-the-air peak time house mixes by both House of Frappier and Matt Moss, to the gritty, no-holds-barred club weapon that is the Rafael M Tech Vibe Remix,  "We're Not Going Back” The Remixes go straight for the dance floor jugular.
