About 
The Dare

The Dare—the solo project of vocalist, songwriter and producer Harrison Patrick Smith—took the world by storm with the release of his debut album, What's Wrong With New York?, in 2024, drawing extensive praise from critics and fellow artists alike. The LP, which arrived via Republic Records, features The Dare's ubiquitous single “Girls”—now a bona fide hit with 52 million streams on Spotify alone—and fan favorites “Perfume” and “Good Time.” He's spent the months since touring the record across the world, selling out every single show worldwide, with a slew of festival performances this spring and summer and a completely blown out seven-show residency at Brooklyn's Baby's All Right in May. The Dare's legendary DJ sets, honed at his signature downtown Manhattan party Freakquencies, have soundtracked parties for Gucci, Celine and Yves Saint Laurent and featured in Rolling Stone, GQ, PAPER and more. Amidst his meteoric rise, he has shared stages and collaborated with the likes of Charli xcx, Billie Eilish, Yves Tumor, Water From Your Eyes and a host of others. The Dare will share a deluxe edition of his critically acclaimed debut album, What’s Wrong With New York?: Afters, on June 20.
