Based in NYC (but originally from NOLA) The Pests have recently paid homage to their punk roots with their latest, self-produced album A Damn Fine Mixture, mastered by Scott Hull {Rage Against the Machine, Beastie Boys) and out now digitally on the bands own 60 Grit label and on 180 gram vinyl that includes a download card and gatefold cover with extra artwork only available with the vinyl release.

The Pests are Steve Halprin -vocals/guitar, Chuck Diesel - bass/vocals, and Mazz-1 on drums.

The first video from the new album for the song “I Admit It” has already garnered over 110k youtube views since January 2015 and the band has had over 600k combined digital stream plays on multi-platforms in the past 24 months. Most recently they signed on with Steev Riccardo of Twisted Rico Management.
