Ireland's rock 'n' roll
stalwarts The Strypes return with their second EP, 4 Track Mind, available
digitally on August 19th, 2014. This makes for their first release under
the new partnership between Photo Finish
Records and Republic Records. The EP will feature 4 tracks previously not available in
the US including "Hard to Say No", "So They Say",
"Still Gonna Drive You Home", which was produced by famed musician
Paul Weller and a US-exclusive cover of The Ramones' "Rockaway Beach". Supporting the EP, the band will launch a string of
very special shows this August, commencing August 19th at
the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. Since bursting onto the scene last spring
with their debut album, Snapshot, The Strypes have
gone on to light up Austin during a string of explosive gigs at the SXSW Festival,
perform on both The Late Show with David Letterman and Conan in the past year, and catch the
attention of Rolling Stone.
“The Strypes skidded into New York's Bowery Ballroom sounding like 'My Generation' and
Five Live Yardbirds only came out yesterday and anyone muttering the
words 'boy band' would be skinned alive..."
