    GIANT PANDA RELEASE NEW ALBUM COUNTRY


    Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad

    Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad‘s sophomore album Country was released January 31 on Controlled Substance Sound Labs. The quintet was featured on NPR’s All Things Considered last weekend. Catch GPGDS this Friday, February 3 at Nietzsche’s in Buffalo, NY, and Saturday, February 4 at Castaways in Ithaca, NY. Stream the new album here and check below for a new batch of tour dates.

    Combining acoustic instrumentation including slide guitar, banjo, harmonica, upright piano, percussion, and bass, the album showcases songs as they were first created: on the road, riding in the van, and jamming backstage. James Searl, Dylan Savage, and Dan Keller trade off lead vocal duties, with back up vocals provided by drummer Chris O’Brian, and multi-instrumentalist Aaron Lipp.

    Later this spring, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad will release a full electric album, In These Times. The psychedelic roots sound will be more familiar to fans who have gotten to know the band through their concerts and live recordings. Controlled Substance Sound Labs will release In These Times on April 10.
