Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse are back and they’re bringing receipts. The California-based (Louisiana & UK born) rock & roots powerhouse group release their explosive new single “Me-Ye-Ye-Yow!” on Friday, June 12th, 2026: a snarling, high-voltage blues-rock anthem that arrives alongside a music video as technically audacious as it is gloriously unhinged.

There’s a message in “Me-Ye-Ye-Yow!” and it’s not subtle. We live in a world of mass corporate surveillance, centralized data collection, and algorithmic systems designed to monitor, predict, and monetize human behavior. Most people accept this as the cost of modern life. Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse respectfully disagree. (Wink.)

The music video follows five glamorously brilliant women of the Kitty Cat Gang running a very real, very functional counter-surveillance operation across the hills and rooftops of Riverside, California, using open-source, decentralized, off-grid communication tools that exist right now, are available to anyone, and do exactly what they do in the video. This isn’t science fiction. It’s a reminder that knowledge is power, and that the people, all of us, have more tools at our disposal than we’re usually told about.

Every piece of equipment in this video is real and was operated correctly on camera. Take a deep dive and find out more about the video and cast over at the bands website. If any of the names of the video cast are unfamiliar, we warmly encourage you to look them up. That’s the whole point! (See website for deets…before it self-destructs!) Deep Dive HERE
“There’s a lot more to say about all of this,” says frontwoman Greta Valenti. “About why we made these choices, what the gear actually does, what it means that any of us can access and use it, and what we think about the world we’re all living in right now. But that’s a conversation, not a press release. If you want to go deeper: call us. (Wink.)”

Visually, the video is a love letter to the femme fatale cult films of the ’60s and ’70s, think Faster Pussycat Kill Kill by way of Cold War spy thriller, shot across the rooftops, hilltops, and sun-scorched streets of Riverside, CA from behind the wheel of a 2021 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 1LT. Feminist, furious, and technically meticulous.

“Me-Ye-Ye-Yow!” is the second single from Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse’s forthcoming 4th studio album, following last year’s barnstorming “One Massive Hit”, also shot in the streets of Downtown Riverside. A full album announcement, title, cover art, and release date coming soon.

Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse continue to earn widespread praise for their fearless approach to music. Reviewing their appearance at Maid of Stone Festival, Planet Rock hailed them as “these twisted firestarters” and declared they “should be starring at bloody Glastonbury,” while Ellie Henman of The Sun simply stated, “They’re brilliant.” Music-News described the band as “one of the most exciting bands on the scene,” and Metal Talk praised them as “an essential live band.” Reflecting their genre-defying spirit, Classic Rock Magazine noted that “Beaux Gris Gris and the Apocalypse enjoy nothing more than defying expectations and genre boundaries.”

The band will celebrate with a UK headline tour in January & February 2027, in support of the forthcoming album, following a European run in November 2026.
