Los Angeles, CA: Genre-bending “new-wop” artists THE FONTAINES just released their first single and first video for the song “Paul Newman.” The video exclusively debuted Monday, September 15 on Yahoo Music, and the song debuted the week before on Buzzbands.la. This tune is the first cut from their upcoming EP, set to drop in January 2015.

Brother and sister HANK and CHARLOTTE FONTAINE, who describe their music as “new-wop,” create music that’s irrefutably catchy, filled with flashy guitar licks and sprightly rhythms. Their songs are positively addictive, courtesy of Charlotte’s honky-tonk, insouciant yet feminine vocals. This duo sounds unlike anything else you’ve ever heard.

With influences as diverse as Buddy Holly, Sam Cooke, The Cars, The Strokes and the Pixies, and song titles like “Paul Newman,” “Dustin Hoffman” and “Dusty Springfield,” The Fontaine’s eclectic sound has a vibe that only these two could’ve come up with.

One thing’s for sure: you’ll fall in love with The Fontaines. Just don’t try to pigeonhole them.
