"...an excellently overstuffed garage-psych sound..." - Pitchfork

"New York band nods to classic indie (Pixies, a dash of Grandaddy); with just enough psych-swirls to stay groovy." -Spin.com

"Brooklyn band CHAPPO plays a catchy, electric blend of psychedelic pop that resonates with both youthful swagger and mature sonic sensibilities, mixing nostalgia and futuristic outer-spaciness with a satisfying pop aesthetic." - Spotify

"Alex Chappo's "Suh-thern" twang kicks dust on the band's swooping background synths, it's like all of a sudden you're listening in Technicolor." - Consequence of Sound

Brooklyn four-piece CHAPPO<http://www.chappomusic.com>, whose debut album Moonwater is out now on Majordomo/Shout!Factory,  are premiering the animated music video for their psychedelic-pop track "What Are You Kids On" today on FilterMagazine.com. The video was created and directed by Kate Stryker and Lucas Millard of Bottomless Well Production.

Lead singer and guitarist Alex Chappo explains, "We worked with Lucus and Kate for our video for Bodies Coasting and we fell in love with their style. This song has a similar whimsical feeling. We wanted to use animation because the song surfs somewhere between the alpha waves of a dream and an exaggerated reality."

In addition, the band, who will be wrapping up their US tour with of  Montreal on June 20th at Cannery Ballroom in Nashville,  is thrilled to announce that they will be taking their high-energy show to Osheaga, Bunbury and Wicker Park festivals this summer! See a full list of tour dates below.
