Punkabilly Icons THE BRAINS Prove Their Resilience With New Video & New Tour Dates!
They’re one of the hardest working bands on the planet, consistently churning out new music and taking their raucous brand of punk meets rockabilly on the road to their legion of fans not only here in the States but in other countries as well. They are The Brains and though they’ve had to fight through several recent setbacks, the band is poised to come roaring back with a brand-new video for their recent single, fittingly enough a supercharged version of Elton John’s ode to perseverance, “I’m Still Standing,” as well as announcing a set of new tour dates for May.
“I’m Still Standing” follows on the heels of several new singles the band has released this year, all of which find head Brain Rene D La Muerte putting his unique spin on some of the great songs from the American Rock N’ Roll canon, classics such as “Yakety Yak,” “California Dreamin’, “Wooly Bully,” “Devil With A Blue Dress On” and several more! In the hands of D La Muerte, these well-known classics get cranked up to 11 with a backbeat that will have you up and dancing. In fact, the video concept for “I’m Still Standing” features what will be a familiar dance sequence to those who share The Brains’ affection for classic horror character Wednesday Addams.
