Today, California rock band CHICO kick off summer the right way with a music video for their hooky single “Blur.” The clip, directed and edited by drummer Tony Rangel, follows the band through a fish eye lens getting into antics before playing a show. The track’s bouncy riffs, baked rhythms, punchy drums, and swaying vocals offer up an infectious blend that expertly previews their forthcoming debut album, Chico, out August 14th through New Morality Zine

Speaking on “Blur,” drummer Tony Rangel shares:
“It’s about facing the question ‘should I give it up?’ You spend endless hours trying to make something work, so much that you wish there was something to blame for it not working out, but you ultimately know it’s up to you to keep trying. I have a problem of neglecting sleep for things like writing, band practices, working late nights to make up for missed work for music stuff. So much missed sleep that I tend to fall asleep at the wheel often, which would worry anyone’s mother.”
