A couple of weeks ago we caught up with former singer of The Bluetones, Mark Morriss, who is currently working on the following up to his debut solo album ‘Memory Muscle’. His second album is due to be released before the end of 2012.

The title track from zebrahead’s forthcoming album ‘Get Nice!’ is now available to buy digitally and the accompanying video has also been unveiled. The band will be playing a one-off headline date at London’s Garage on Monday 8th August. Tickets available at www.ticketweb.co.uk. This will follow a performance at Hevy Festival in Kent the day before with the likes of Four Year Strong and Funeral or A Friend.

Matty from the band says of the forthcoming trip to this part of the world – “I can’t wait to get back to Europe! The fans are incredible! I wish I could take them all home with me and adopt them!”

The La Habra, CA-based punk inspired rock outfit Zebrahead was formed in the mist of the Orange County punk explosion and since their incarnation they have had highs and lows, sold over 1.5 million albums to date, survived label changes, garnered a Grammy nomination and toured nonstop. Fueled by pure determination and a lot of beer the band is still going strong.

The album is released on 29th August.
