May 24, 2017– Nashville’s emerging surf indie pop-rock trio, *repeat repeat are thrilled to announce their signing to Dangerbird Records. To celebrate, *repeat repeat has released a sneak peek of their sophomore album with the music video for the track “Plugged In” shared exclusively with PopMatters today. CLICK HERE to watch exclusively on Pop Matters.

Jared Corder the frontman says, "The song was inspired by the Mike Judge film "Idiocracy" in which the world keeps getting dumber. It's a lot easier to stay “Plugged In" and be a slave to consumption; educating yourself is a lot harder (and scarier) these days. We wanted the song to capture the urgency and necessity of knowledge in a world full of fiction."

"To us, it made perfect sense to work with Dangerbird. They broke some of our favorite acts, which meant they knew how to get a newer act the right exposure. They are also the perfect size for us to not feel like small fish in a huge pond of artists. We felt like Dangerbird would give us the tools we needed grow and the room to do it the way we wanted to."

*repeat repeat is your favorite band’s favorite band. Mixing the sunny swoon of Sixties pop with a dark swirl of Warholian garage rock, *repeat repeat create their own geography to match their sound. Based in Nashville, TN — where frontman Jared Corder, drummer Andy Herrin, and vocalist/keys player Kristyn Corder kicked off the band's career with 2014's Bad Latitude — the three musicians make pop songs rooted in the spirit of both coasts, looking beyond the borders of their landlocked hometown and, instead, mixing California surf culture and New York street smarts into the same tracklist. They're a blend of bloom, doom, and boom. They're Dick Dale's snot-nosed grandkids. They're *repeat repeat.

*repeat repeat’s live shows buzz with an urgent, exuberant energy that consistently lights up rock clubs in Music City and beyond. *repeat repeat will be hitting the road for appearances on some of this summer’s most anticipated festivals, including Firefly Music Festival,Forecastle Festival and more.
