VICKY AND THE VENGENTS RELEASE A NEW SINGLE "SHA NA"

From the very first time we saw Vicky and the Vengents play live we knew they were something special. The band call themselves "A Psychedelic Maltshop Punk/Pop/ Rock n' Roll group" which is the perfect moniker for a band that draw influences from many different genres and eras. The song "Sha na" has been in a staple of their live setlist the past few years but they had never recorded or released it. We're happy to say that the wait is finally over. Not only is it their new single but they decided to release it as a 7 inch vinyl much to the delight of record collectors everywhere.



The song starts with Matt Beld's electrifying punk rock guitar then with Vicky's powerful vocals coming in a few seconds later, delivering a one-two punch of in-your-face rock n' roll fury. Bassist Vinny Malachi and drummer Dusty Watson keep the back beat at Ramones-like speed for the unforgettable 2 minute and 53 second song. The songwriting team of Tafoya and Beld have a knack for writing songs with memorable choruses that get stuck in your head after just one listen. This song is sure to become an instant classic and it's easily one of our favorite records of 2013. The single was released by Groovers Records and is available now directly from the band and will soon be available at CD Baby on vinyl as well as digital download. The band is playing a special record release show on Saturday December 14th at Loaded in Hollywood. Copies will be available at the show.
