Bodega share new single ‘Myrtle Parade’ and announce October UK tour

BODEGA have released their new single 'Myrtle Parade' and announced a deluxe edition of their latest album, 'Our Brand Could Be Yr Life'.

The band first announced the record in January and shared its title track 'Tarkovski' . Their third studio LP, it was released in April.

Now, they have shared details of a digital deluxe edition of the album, titled 'Brand On The Run', which will be released on November 1 via Chrysalis Records. It will contain seven additional tracks, including the Madchester-influenced 'Myrtle Parade'.

Watch the video for that song, directed by the band themselves, below:

The band's Ben Hozie has said: "'Myrtle Parade' was a song I originally wrote for an earlier version of 'Endless Scroll' but it was far too sunny and breezy to fit with the minimalism of that album. It's a song set in a smoky DIY warehouse venue (Brookyln's defunct and much missed Aviv) about feeling out of place and going through the motions at a show where the atmosphere is cramped and the social anxiety is high. The verse lyrics feature impressionistic snippets of overheard conversation at the venue where I imagined gossip about Myrtle, a fictional scenester emblematic of the BK rock world I associate with the Myrtle Wyckoff and Myrtle Broadway subway stops."

'Our Brand Could Be Yr Life' was a complete remake of Hozie and bandmate Nikki Belfiglio's previous band Bodega Bay's sole album, a 33-track self-released record from 2015.

The band will also play a UK tour in October, playing the following dates:
