The Ettes - Wicked Will out August 2nd



"...equal parts bristling and sexy." - SPIN

"Lead singer Coco Hames channels some of the best bouffanted singers of the '60s while adding a sleek punk edge." - NPR

[IMG_0104-lr.JPG]The Ettes will be releasing their 4th studio album Wicked Will on August 2 via Krian Music Group/Fond Object. Stream lead single "Excuse" here<http://soundcloud.com/press-here-1/the-ettes-excuse>, out now exclusively on iTunes. Combining fuzzy bass and searing guitars, a tell-it-like-it-is chorus and a 60s-girl-group flare, "Excuse" is the perfect introduction to an album oozing with sassy defiance and the Ettes' one-of-a-kind rock 'n' roll mystique. The song has already grabbed the attention of radio programmers around the country ahead of the official radio impact date, with both KROQ, specialty and college radio giving the song early spins. The Ettes will kick off their U.S. summer tour with two special NYC album release shows on August 2 at Mercury Lounge and August 3rd at Knitting Factory. Full list of tour dates below!


On August 2nd,  Sympathy For The Record Industry will come out of a four-year retirement to release the limited edition vinyl of Wicked Will, produced by Liam Watson (The Kills, White Stripes). Additionally, there will be three limited edition 7" singles for the album's closing track "The Worst There Is." Each of the three 7" will feature cover art of each band member, with their b-side of choice. Coco Hames' b-side is "Randy Scouse Git," a Monkees cover. Poni Silver chose "Eat The Night," the first song that The Ettes ever wrote and recorded, and Jem Cohen's b-side is "Colours" by Donovan.
