Audacity releasing 'Mellow Cruisers' (stream 2 tracks, video)

z

Audacity is preparing a new set of poppy garage-punk for Burger / Recess Records on July 10. The record’s titled Mellow Cruisers and features the singles “Garza Girls” and “Punk Confusion,” the latter of which was just made into a video and we’re premiering it right here in this post. Watch it below, along with a stream of it and “Garza Girls,” and a list of all their current tour dates.

While you can’t catch Audacity as a band in NYC anytime soon, you can catch them in the flesh as the backing band for King Tuff. King Tuff played 285 Kent on June 9 with Habibi as part of their current tour, and will return to the NYC area to play Maxwell’s in Hoboken on Thursday (6/14). Tickets are still available and remaining tour dates are listed below.
