With the lyrics, “All I want is to be at home with you eating tacos and watching UHF on DVD,” frontman Jordan Hudkins of Rozwell Kid shows his appreciation for life’s simple pleasures on the band’s newest single, aptly titled “UHF On DVD.”
Released today via SideOneDummy Records, the new track is ripe with catchy arpeggios and classic Rozwell Kid off-beat humor about watching Weird-Al Yankovic’s 1989 film UHF with a special someone.
The track is accompanied by a lyric video featuring tacos, donuts and psychedelic desert imagery to lighten the lyrics about loneliness and longing.
The indie-punk outlet isn’t shy to light-hearted experimentation; Rozwell Kid’s last release “South By” tells a humorous albeit short tale about the perilous parking situation at SXSW’s 2015 showcase.
Both “UHF On DVD” and “South By” are set to be featured on Rozwell Kid’s forthcoming sophomore album Precious Art, out June 23 via SideOneDummy.
Rozwell Kid will embark on a North American tour this summer with supporting acts Vundabar, Great Grandpa and Chriss Farren. Check out the lyric video and the band’s tour dates below!
