BALU BRIGADA FIND A WAY ON EAGERLY
AWAITED NEW EP
RISING ALT-INDIE-FUNK DUO RETURN WITH EXHILARATING NEW PROJECT
NORTH AMERICAN LIVE DATES ALONGSIDE QUARTERS OF CHANGE
BEGIN OCTOBER 13 IN ASBURY PARK, NJ
FIND A WAY EP AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE NOW HERE
“Balu Brigada is the groove-pop
dual you've been waiting for.” – PEOPLE
“Balu Brigada are all about
experimentation, inspired by genre-mashing musical giants Gorillaz and Frank
Ocean. Their songs perfectly soundtrack coastal road trips, summer BBQs and
flirty dancefloor moments – effortless, laidback cool…. Balu Brigada’s time is
now.” – ONES TO WATCH
Rising alt-indie-funk duo Balu Brigada have
shared their eagerly awaited new EP, Find A Way, available
now HERE.
Find A Way is heralded by today’s premiere of the project’s new single, “Another Day,” streaming HERE. In addition, the EP includes such exhilarating new tracks as “2Good” and the heartbreakingly funky title track, “Find A Way,” both joined by official music videos streaming now at YouTube.
“‘Find A Way’ is a bittersweet mantra that we’ve had for the last couple of years,” say Balu Brigada. “Whether it was ‘Find a way to get to America’ or ‘Find a way to maintain a long-distance relationship’ or even just ‘Find a way to be present and happy.’ Our career so far has been a series of step-by-step moments that have led us closer to our dream of writing and playing music across the world. Neither of us are big planners so we’ve had to learn to trust our instincts and take things one step at a time, even if we don’t know what the following two steps are. We often talk about how we have to ‘follow our nose’ on things, but that would have been a really shit title for an EP, so when we wrote the song ‘Find A Way’, it felt like a good way to sum up our experience in writing this project.”
Hailed by i-D as “an actual band of brothers making tunes stacked with hooks that’ll run circles around your brain for days,” multi-instrumentalist/songwriter/producer brothers Henry and Pierre Beasley have fast garnered a loyal following and critical acclaim for Balu Brigada’s signature blend of irresistible hooks and introspective lyricism.
Currently based in Brooklyn, NY, the Auckland, NZ-born
Beasleys have spent much of the past few years creating a unique future-facing
sound of their own, prioritizing dual vocals, prominent bass hooks, and punchy
drums while showcasing a left-of-center pop sensibility and natural ability to
skate genres, including such dynamic yet poignant singles as “Designer” and “OH! Not Again,” as
well as last year’s debut EP, I Should Be Home, all of which have earned Balu Brigada applause from such outlets
as Rolling Stone, Ones To Watch, and PEOPLE,
the latter of which named the band to its “Talented Emerging Artists Making
Their Mark” list, praising their “soaring falsetto choruses, synth hooks and
an irresistible, underlying groove.”
Balu Brigada will celebrate Find A Way and more new music to come with a wide-ranging live schedule that includes headline dates in Australia/New Zealand along with eagerly anticipated North American shows alongside Quarters of Change set for Asbury Park, NJ’s House of Independents (October 13) and Hamden, CT’s Space Ballroom (October 16). Additional dates will be announced soon. For updates and more, please visit www.balu-brigada.com/tour.
