<p class="MsoNormal"><i>New York, NY – April 29, 2014</i> – On the heels of last week’s 40<sup>th</sup> Anniversary album announcement,
<b>Blondie </b>has unveiled the brand new video for their song <b>“Sugar On The Side”</b> via
<b>Hunger TV</b>. <b><a href="http://www.hungertv.com/feature/exclusive-blondie-sugar-side/">PRESS HERE</a></b><b><span style="font-size:16.0pt">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#606060"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Directed by iconic English photographer <b>Rankin,</b> this striking video shares its concept with
<b>Debbie Harry</b>'s bold Issue 5 cover shoot for <b>UK’s Hunger Magazine</b>. Shot in monochrome and mixing kaleidoscope and geometric visuals,
<b>“Sugar On The Side”</b> sees Harry embody two contrasting looks and personas. The track features Caribbean collective
<b>Systema Solar</b>.<span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#606060">
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“This album is a little more far-reaching. It’s a bit more dance-y. We’ve done a lot more collaboration, with different musicians, singers and writers on this album than ever before,"
<b>Debbie Harry</b> told Hunger. "For instance, Chris (Stein) got in touch with the guys from Systema Solar, who are on 'Sugar On The Side', over the internet because he had been listening to their music and really liked it.”<span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif""> </span><span style="color:#606060"><br>
