Albany-raised pop-punk band State Champs released their new single, ‘Light Blue,’ off their upcoming self-titled record to be released on November 8th via Pure Noise Records. This is the third single off the album, coming just after the band released two others last month, including ‘Too Late To Say’ and ‘Silver Cloud,’ both of which had accompanying music videos.
The band shared their thoughts on the latest track below: “Have you ever been transported back in time, for better or for worse, simply by the smell of something or someone? Inspired by Dan & Shay’s ‘Tequila,’ we put our energetic spin on this concept with ‘Light Blue.’ It’s a light-hearted track that reminiscences and rollercoasters between airy, bouncy guitars and pop arrangements to a full-blown fuzzed-out chorus that will have you banging your head in between memories you didn’t ask to be dug back up.”
State Champs will be heading out on a tour this fall across North America. Supporting them on this tour are Knuckle Puck, Meet Me at The Altar, and Daisy Grenade. They will be making stops from coast to coast, kicking off on November 8th in Austin, Texas, and visiting major cities, including Phoenix, Anaheim, Salt Lake City, Denver, Cleveland, Nashville, Orlando, Boston, Philadelphia, and Toronto, among others. They will wrap up the tour on December 7th in New York City – check out the dates below!
