Scruffy Bear announce new EP ‘Good Intentions Of A Grumpy Sun’
SCRUFFY BEAR have announced a new EP!
Titled Good Intentions Of A Grumpy Sun, the upcoming EP from the North Yorkshire-based fuzzy rock band is the follow-up to 2022’s Face The Rain EP, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via self-release.
Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Pity Party. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming of EP, following on from Selfish Dreamer, which was released back in May.
Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, vocalist Georgy Eaton says, “to us, Pity Party has always had an ‘alien fiesta’ sort of vibe, so we decided to really embrace that for the music video. We didn’t want the video to be a ‘damsel in distress’ situation and really loved the idea of the 60s/70s Sci Fi Barbarella theme. This was such a fun video to film & create!
The song Pity Party is about feeling frustrated with someone always feeling sorry for themselves, so I like to think of the aliens as those feelings and the alien hunter trying to shoot them down and get them to come round to the idea of gratitude & only getting to live one life. We had so much fun terrorising the local town with the aliens and we were lucky enough to use the incredible Number Eight Bakehouse & Forum Music Centre in Darlington to get some great shots of the aliens trying to experience being humans.”
