FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  

TUMBLEDOWN CELEBRATE FAT TUESDAY WITH  
THE RELEASE OF THEIR NEW VIDEO, “GREAT BIG WORLD,”  
ON THEIR OFFICIAL WEBSITE, WWW.TUMBLEDOWNHQ.COM 

Los Angeles, CA, February 21, 2012 – Bremerton, WA-based alt-country band TUMBLEDOWN will premiere the video for their new single, “Great Big World,” from their sophomore album, EMPTY BOTTLE, today, Fat Tuesday (“Mardi Gras”), February 21, on their official website, starting at 9 a.m. PST/12 p.m. EST. 

TUMBLEDOWN’s frontman and guitarist, Mike Herrera (MxPx) describes the second single as, “A song that came from our animated live set and a tribute to the good times at the places we’ve been lucky to travel to.”  

The video was directed by Chris Crary, whom Herrera worked with on the band’s most recent video, “Arrested In El Paso Blues,” and most notably with MxPx’s “Gimme Christmas” video. The performance part of the video was shot in Bremerton, but the remaining footage was taken on the road.  It was produced by Crary, Mark Nashif, and Herrera.  

TUMBLEDOWN’s music takes that sepia-tinged image of Americana and sends it hurtling into the present, with the help of some punk-inflected riffs and pure rock ’n’ roll attitude. EMPTY BOTTLE, the band’s second release through Austin, Texas, indie label End Sounds, is proving to be a defining album for TUMBLEDOWN, a follow-up to their self-titled album released in 2009.

The band is wrapping up their current West Coast tour.  For a list of remaining tour dates, please visit www.tumbledownhq.com.

TUMBLEDOWN HEAD INTO THE NEW YEAR WITH NEW TOUR DATES AND A NEW SINGLE, “GREAT BIG WORLD”

Los Angeles, CA, January 23, 2012 – Ready to kick off the new year with a bang, Bremerton, WA-based  
alt-country/rockabilly band TUMBLEDOWN is heading out on a two-week West Coast tour. The foursome will team up with Drag The River for the start of the tour on February 10 in San Francisco, CA, through February 13 in San Diego, CA. TUMBLEDOWN will continue the tour on their own, ending on February 21 in Denver, CO.  

With their sophomore release, EMPTY BOTTLE, already outselling their debut album in less than a year, two U.S. tours, a handful of West Coast runs, and tour dates in Japan, South America and Mexico, TUMBLEDOWN is ready to release their second single, "Great Big World," which will be serviced to radio this week. Making a name for themselves from their endless touring schedule, frontman Mike Herrera describes the single, "I'd like to write a verse about every place I've ever been, and this is a pretty good start. I gotta put one foot in front of the other because we got a long way to go, and we'll be passing through your town to get there."  

TUMBLEDOWN’s music takes that sepia-tinged image of Americana and sends it hurtling into the present, with the help of some punk-inflected riffs and pure rock & roll attitude. EMPTY BOTTLE, the band’s second release through Austin, Texas, indie label End Sounds, is proving to be a defining album for TUMBLEDOWN, a follow-up to their self-titled album released in 2009.

Press Quotes:

“Empty Bottle is rockabilly for a new era…its music is current, with closer ties to punk and the alt country of Lucero, Old 97s, and Hank William III’s alter-ego Assjack band.” – VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE   

"Empty Bottle is a rollicking, rustic throwback to a dusty brand of country that has all but disappeared from today's world." – ALTERNATIVE PRESS MAGAZINE
