Song: HollyWood Shampoo
Artist: Champagne Champagne
Album: Champagne Champagne
It’s been a few years since Champagne Champagne’s self-titled debut album came out, but it’s never too late to check it out. It’s been a while since they’ve released some jams, but this summer they’ll be dropping a couple of new remixes. Seriously can’t wait. Until then, stream the track here.

Song Of The Day: WE Wednesday (2/20/13)
Song: Soda & Poprocks
Artist: Champagne Champagne
Album: Champagne Champagne (Self-titled)
Champagne Champagne is always a good band to get the blood flowing. This song reminds me of an early Shabazz Palaces and it’s a good song to bump anytime of the day. This whole album is on point. Check it out here.

BAND NAME : Champagne Champagne
MEMBERS : Pearl Dragon / Thomas Gray / Mark GajadharCITY : SEATTLE
BIOGRAPHY:
Seattle’s own punk-rap-shoegazers, backroom brown hornets, vibrate higher in their magnetic blackness. Two MC’s: Pearl Dragon, lifer-a smoke-breathing hood Jim Morrison- and Sir Thomas Gray, the hyperactivated game-gifted trouble man. One producer/multi-instrumentalist Mark Gajadhar, (drummer/founding member of defunct Seattle post-hardcore institution The Blood Brothers, current backbone to Past Lives and Weekend) – master of dark arts, road-trip Macgyver, and sound systems savage. Together they “outrap and outparty everyone” (via Seattle Weekly), drink greenrooms dry, and smash packed clubs and sweaty basements alike with their afrofuturist afterparty music- rejecting easy classifications, broke groupies, and bammer weed. Just picture The Cure, Cody ChesnuTT and Cannibal Ox at a Pabst-soaked jam in a haunted mansion.
