Punk Legends The Furys Return With New Singles Compilation "New Wave Hit Parade"
The Furys are one of Southern California’s first New Wave/Punk/Powerpop bands! The group’s first single was released in 1977 (“Hey Ma” b/w “Jim Stark Dark”), and 1978’s “Say Goodbye to the Black Sheep” was an international success, garnering extensive airplay, press, and live performances. According to founding member and lead vocalist Jeff Wolfe, “The Furys formed in 1977 as a reaction to the dreadful noise that was on the radio at that time.” 1979 saw the release of the “Moving Target” / “We Talk We Dance” single which elicited substantial critical response.
The Furys released a five-song mini album entitled “Indoor/Outdoor” in 1987. Recorded at EMI/America studio in Hollywood, “Indoor/Outdoor” had an excellent sales run, huge radio response and heavy press coverage.
The band’s new singles (“New Wave Girl” and “Action Reaction”) were released the second week of September 2021. These songs are the first new material issued by the band since 2015’s “The Sound of the Furys” CD.
Now the band is back with a new singles collection titled “New Wave Hit Parade” which encompasses all three of the group’s vinyl singles from 1977-1979 as well as The Furys 1987 mini-album “Indoor/Outdoor”. Also included is The Furys 2016 digital single “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore”. This is the first ever digital release of the vinyl records.
Says Jeff Wolfe, “After numerous multi-generational requests, The Furys have been reformed to continue their campaign for world domination.” The musical direction of The Furys was, is, and always will be melodic poetry blended with powerful music.
In conjunction with “New Wave Hit Parade” and upcoming releases of new material, The Furys will be performing live in Autumn 2023. Long standing members, Jeff Wolfe and Dave Lewty will be joined by guitarists Cliff Roman (The Weirdos), Jeff Jourard (The Motels) and Ray Herron (The Sloths) on drums.
New Wave Hit Parade” is available through all streaming platforms

SF Garage Rock Legends FLAMIN’ GROOVIES Release Vintage Live Album
Out of all of the bands that burst forth from the immensely fertile ‘60s Bay Area musical soil, the Flamin’ Groovies were undoubtedly one of the most unique. Formed in San Francisco in the mid-‘60s by guitarist Cyril Jordan, vocalist Roy Loney, and bassist George Alexander, the band combined straight ahead guitar –driven rock and roll, with garage rock and a bit of vaudeville thrown in for good measure.
During the seventies, after Roy Loney left and was replaced by lead singer Chris Wilson, the band changed its direction, being more greatly influenced by the Beatles and the Byrds, and becoming one of the foremost purveyors of what soon became known as “power pop”. They released three classic albums on Sire Records, two of which were produced by Dave Edmunds. Like many of their Bay Area counterparts, the Groovies truly shone in a live setting where Jordan and company could truly display their brand of high energy rock and roll. The release of live recordings of the band has always been, and continues to be, a cause for great celebration.
Coming
this July 7th, Flamin’ Groovies will be releasing “Rockin’ the
Roundhouse”, a killer live album of vintage recordings from live shows
in London in 1978 and 1976 that show exactly why this band maintains its
fervent fanbase. The set includes not one but two performances of the
Groovies’ most well-known song, “Shake Some Action”, along with “Don’t
Put Me On”, “Sometimes,” “Between the Lines” and a superb cover of The
Beatles’ “Please Please Me,” which fans can stream today!
As a special bonus, the CD version of Rockin’ The Roundhouse includes two bonus tracks, a hip new mix from internationally acclaimed modern retroists The Courettes as well as an alternate studio version of hugely popular "Slow Death!"
