Ballyhoo!
Jun 23, 2013

The Reggae/Alternative band Ballyhoo! will be releasing the band's much-anticipated 5th studio album, Pineapple Grenade via Right Coast Records on June 25th. This new 14-track album is a step forward for the band in many ways, including a new track produced by Rome Ramirez (Sublime with Rome) and mixed by Paul Leary (U2, Sublime). The lead single from the album is "Run".
Pineapple Grenade is Ballyhoo!'s first new album since releasing Daydreams in the Fall of 2011, which debuted at #1 on the iTunes Reggae Charts and #4 on Amazon. The success of Daydreams led the band to navigate their most successful year yet, playing 166 shows in 2012 including the Vans Warped Tour, the 311 Caribbean Cruise in 2012 and 2013, Bamboozle, and a national tour with Tribal Seeds. Ballyhoo!'s fanbase continues to grow through steadfast touring, leading to the band to reach #1 on SiriusXM Faction. Ballyhoo! members include Howi Spangler (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Scott Vandrey (Keyboards/Programming/Vocal Harmonies), Donald Spangler (Drums) and J.R. Gregory (Bass).
Alongside the album release, Ballyhoo! is currently co-headlining the 2013 Summer Sickness Tour with Authority Zero and special guests, Versus The World. The two-month trek kicked off on May 31st in Tempe, AZ and includes 40+ shows across 27 states spanning from California to Canada to Florida.
