Ponytail Give Away New Track, LP Available April 12

Tweet

Those crazy kids from Baltimore are making it hard to wait until April 12. As stated earlier in this blog, there was a time when we thought Ponytail was no more. Springing from the ashes like a phoenix, they announced that they were indeed still intact and that their new album would be out via We Are Free Records. In addition, they have thrown us a track for free download below.

The exuberance of "Easy Peasy" is undeniable. Not unlike the music on their 2008 freakfest Ice Cream Spiritual, the track deliberately bubbles over from the effervescence of swirling synth and popcorn percussion that eventually gives way to the sweet guitar noodling. Finally the otherworldly chants take center stage and the race is on. The head bobbing and foot stomping cannot be helped. There is no standard, no coherence, no purpose here, just unadulterated joy filtered through the conduits of these willing musicians. Let hope for some fun summer concert information to be releases shortly. Bonus: Enjoy the quirky live video from an early performance of "Easy Peasy" below as well.

Ponytail Deliver Promo Video For New Album

Tweet

In a short time, Baltimore four-piece Ponytail has cemented a reputation as the spazziest of all spazz-rockers. After two albums and some of the most talked about live performances, the rumors began to swirl that this vital band had called it quits after extensive touring in support of their 2008 LP Ice Cream Spiritual. Not only were the stories summarily squashed, but they have a new record ready for launch. The appropriately titled Do Whatever You Want All The Time is scheduled to drop on April 12 on We Are Free Records. At this point, there is no freebie from the new album. However, they have put together a video featuring a nameless new track that is certainly enticing. Check it out below, then give a listen to a couple of older tracks as well.
