New music from SoulFang, lineups for Get Lucky and Kilby Block Party

Soulfang: “Rollercoaster” out now
On the heels of their sexually-charged rocker “I’m Your Drug,” SoulFang delivers “Rollercoaster,” an infectious bop with a bright exterior which hides a lyrical darkness. Written by Sam (bass) during a terrifying mixed episode of bipolar disorder, it sets the erratic mood swings of its protagonist to a danceable funk groove with an intensely catchy chorus. It’s dark, it’s a little twisted, but it’s also an absolute banger. The song has everything typical of a Soulfang jam—bucketsful of energy, a tasty bassline and interesting subject matter. They are able to flawlessly blend cool tunes with heavy subject matter in a way that keeps you curious and wonder what will happen next. As a special treat, they also dropped an exciting and colorful music video to go along with the new track. “Rollercoaster” is streaming everywhere now, and check out the music on their YouTube channel.
