Pepper reveal first single and video \’Start You Up\’ today, on Hawaiian Punch tour
February 5, 2016
Pepper have revealed a brand new video, “Start You Up,” from their forthcoming album. Fans can check out the video exclusively on The Pier today: http://www.thepier.org/video-pepper-start-you-up/.
The video was directed by Kahena Productions principals Ali Gollestani and Evan Loney, and stars pro-surfer Keala Naihe and model Cristal Serrano and was filmed in gorgeous Wailea, Hawaii.
“\”Start You Up\” was the first song we worked up,” said the band’s Kaleo Wassman. “It really set the tone and feeling for the album. It\’s a perfect blend of where this band\’s from, and where this band is.”
\”Start You Up” is now streaming on Spotify and available for purchase on iTunes, which also includes two dub remixes of the song by Kyle McDonald (Slightly Stoopid) and Brad Watanabe (The Green.)
Pepper – Kaleo Wassman (guitar/vocals), Bret Bollinger (bass/vocals) and Yesod Williams (drums/vocals) – kick off their 2016 touring plans with the Hawaiian Punch Winter Tour, a co-headlining run with Iration, which begins on February 12th in Fresno, California.
