Bleeding Knees Club Premiere “Chew The Gum” Music Video and Announce Tour Dates
WATCH HERE
Australia’s reignited garage-pop bad boys Bleeding Knees Club are stoked to unveil the film clip for their latest sugar-rush single “Chew The Gum”, and announce national tour dates in May and June.
The “Chew The Gum” vid has just premiered via themusic.com.au, and is an action-packed homage to the ultimate getting-even fantasy – hiring a pro wrestler to beat up your bully! (Oh, and there’s a fair amount of gratuitous violence and pissing in it, too). Frontman Alex Wall reveals, “Everyone can relate to wanting to get revenge. And some can relate to getting pissed on.

Tuffet Bunnies
Los Angeles based singer-songwriter Tuffet Bunnies is thrilled to share “Lucky Number,” the first single since his debut EP Love Songs For Scarlett. “Lucky Number” is a charming indie folk love song, complete with acoustic guitar, saxophone, and Clem Darling’s soothing, breathy vocals. His warm, easygoing essence is easily for fans of Devendra Banhart, Ingrid Michaelson, or Noah and the Whale.
Tuffet Bunnies released his debut EP Love Songs for Scarlett in late 2016 and shared a music video for the featured single “Everything” in January. The video sees Clem Darling enjoying a day at the park surrounded by loving couples, an acrobat, and a sparkly butterfly. The video perfectly depicts the delightful, happy-go-lucky love song.
