Watch: Tijuana Panthers Reveal New Single/Video "Slacker"


Long Beach art rock/alt band Tijuana Panthers have revealed the video for their new single "Slacker".

The song is taken from their upcoming sixth studio album 'Halfway to Eighty', which will be out on June 24 via Innovative Leisure. Pre-order your copy here.

Halfway to Eighty is an embrace of much more than just a band. It’s a statement of dedication to the calling of music—to sticking with making art as long as you want to, age be damned. “You know what would make me just go, ‘Oh, let’s just quit,’” says Wachtel, recalling a recent raucous show in Los Angeles, “is if we didn’t have that reception anymore. The fans keep me going.”

“Not to get all spiritual about it,” adds Michicoff, “but when we were younger, we played really hard for nobody, and now the fans do all the work for us. They have the fun and we just kind of rock out, and it’s nice. It’s cool to sit back and play the songs and watch. They’re putting on a show for us.”
