The Bouncing Souls premiere new song “Boogie Woogie Downtown”
Music News | Jul 31st, 2009
2009 has been an extremely busy year so far for New Jersey punk legends, The Bouncing Souls, as they continue to celebrate their 20 year anniversary!
Starting in January, The Bouncing Souls, and their label, Chunksaah Records, announced they’d release a brand new song to their fans on the first of every month (seven new tracks to date as of this week), premiered an amazing new video for March’s new song, “Airpoirt Security,” performed at this year’s SXSW Music Marathon, toured the States with good friends Dillinger 4, The Loved Ones, Black President, The AKAs and more, showed homage to Record Store Day with an in-store acoustic performance at Generation Records in New York City, flew to play Alaska for the first time where Mount Redoubt’s first eruption in 20 years (coincidence?) left the band temporarily stranded, toured South America for the first time ever, and are currently finishing up a European tour.
Now, taking us into the second half of 2009, The Bouncing Souls are poised to take part in even more unforgettable festivities, as they prepare for a series of celebratory shows coming to the New York and Philadelphia area w/ special guests Lifetime, 7 Seconds, and more this August, a two-week stint on the Vans Warped Tour, another late Summer European tour, and a recently announced Fall tour of Canada w/ Youth Brigade and Off With Their Heads, all in conjunction with their current series of new releases (available at their label’s website, Chunksaah.com, and streaming on the band’s Myspace and Facebook pages).
Starting today, you can stream the band’s new song for the month of August, entitled, “Boogie Woogie Downtown.” Says Souls singer Greg Attonito of the new song, “The song is about clearing the air in a relationship when thoughts and feelings have been left unsaid. Good times can’t resume until the air is clear…only then can we get back to Boogie Woogie Downtown.” Stream “Boogie Woogie Downtown” here!
