What started as a reunion in 2013 with tours of Japan, Australia and the UK, has continued and evolved into a full blown return in full force of the FLAMIN’ GROOVIES. In the past three years the band has toured the USA\u00a0extensively with repeated visits to New York, L.A. and their hometown of San Francisco, as well as returning from hugely successful tours of Spain, France and Italy.\u00a0In anticipation of their 50th Anniversary this year, they’ll be performing a special hometown San Fran show at The Chapel on April 7th, followed by another tour of Europe in April\/May. <\/p>\n

In addition, they’re also planning on releasing a new studio album, a documentary film, and are about to drop a new single from their forthcoming LP via Burger Records on Record Store Day (April 16, 2016). This new single features two Cyril Jordan\/Chris Wilson penned tracks – the recently written “Crazy Macy” and the first track ever written by Jordan & Wilson, “Let Me Rock” recorded here for the first time!\u00a0To pre-order both the 7″ vinyl and cassette singles of\u00a0“Crazy Macy”\/”Let Me Rock” click HERE<\/a>.<\/div>\n

In further Groovies Record Store Day news, Rhino Records will be releasing a limited Warren Zevon \/ Flamin’ Groovies “Werewolves of London” 7″ picture disc<\/a> on RSD as part of their\u00a0now-famous SIDE BY SIDE Series, that pairs two artists with one classic song.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Cyril Jordan, Chris Wilson, George Alexander line-up featured on the three albums released by Sire Records, that rocked the UK, Europe and the US from 1971 – 1980 are BACK IN ACTION. With the addition of Victor Penalosa on drums, they continue to present their own unique and infectious style of rock ‘n’ roll with such cult classics as “Shake Some Action,” “Slow Death” and “Teenage Head.” In addition, co-founding member Roy Loney will also be joining the Groovies for a few\u00a0shows both here and abroad, where he’ll be performing a number of the Flamin’ Groovies’ early favorites with the band.<\/p>\n
