WHITE REAPER SHARE NEW SONG &
MUSIC VIDEO - “FOG MACHINE”
“PAGES” GOES TOP 20 AT ALTERNATIVE
RADIO
2023 NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINE TOUR
BEGINS FEBRUARY 7TH
WITH SPECIAL GUESTS NARROW HEAD,
MILITARIE GUN, TAIPEI HOUSTON & MAMALARKY
White Reaper have shared “Fog Machine,” a brand-new single off their forthcoming album Asking for a Ride, which will be released January 27th on Elektra Entertainment. Available today on all streaming platforms, “Fog Machine” is joined by a Max Moore directed music video.
White Reaper "Fog Machine"
Vocalist / guitarist Tony Esposito elaborated on the genesis of “Fog Machine” noting, “We had it in our back pocket for a while. We knew we loved playing it together, but it was a little tricky to nail the arrangement at first. We got it together at the last minute before we went into the studio and now it’s our favorite song to play live.”
“Fog Machine” follows
the album’s lead single “Pages” which moved into the Top 20 at Alternative radio this
week. Rolling Stone picked “Pages” as one of their “Songs You
Need to Know” while Stereogum included it in their 5 Best
Songs of the Week round-up declaring it, “a simple retro pop-rock
tune with so much power and pizzazz that it feels like they just invented the
format.
Recorded and largely
self-produced in Nashville with the help of close friend and engineer Jeremy
Ferguson, Asking for a Ride finds the Louisville band taking a
more direct and in-your-face approach, prioritizing the collection’s raw energy
and its ability to translate live through ripping and nervy compositions. It’s
White Reaper at their most exciting - dialing up the chrome-plated riffs and
monster hooks – a welcome reminder of just how much fun rock music can be.
“We ask ourselves: ‘Does it sound good when we play it in the room together?’ And if it does, those are the songs we want to pursue,” Esposito noted. Guitarist Hunter Thompson concurred: “We started to recognize how we operate best as a band.”
Up next, White Reaper will hit the road for their 2023 North American “Asking for a Ride” headline tour. The upcoming trek will feature special guests Narrow Head, Militarie Gun, Taipei Houston, and Mamalarky on select dates, and will kick off February 7th [tour itinerary below]. The forthcoming dates will see White Reaper’s long awaited return to touring after having spent years living on the road, headlining and supporting some of their idols – Pearl Jam, Weezer, and The Killers – while making festival appearances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and more.
