It’s been a rough, tension-inducing few months in quarantine and the world is finally starting to let off some steam. We could all use some serious dance therapy right now and Low Volts is about to release a brand new, cure-all anthem entitled, ‘Celebratin’ (At a Distance) on June 12th, 2020. A tongue in cheek (behind a mask) party banger like no other. Imagine dancing your asses off in “invisible bubbles”, keeping your distance, (“three meters on each side”) but being able to really cut loose in a club again. This is the essence of ‘Celebratin’. The song was recorded in isolation at Singing Serpent in San Diego with Mike Butler twisting knobs behind the glass in a separate control room. Tim Lowman (aka Low Volts) creates a thick, gritty, and extra greazy sound by playing guitar through multiple amps, stomping a giant kickdrum and howling into the mic…simultaneously. A sleeker, less awkward version of a ‘one-man band’ if you will.

This is all captured live with percussion subtly overdubbed to liven up key parts of the vibrant track. An official music video was also created out at the Salton Sea with Low Volts singing and dancing around the bizarre art installations and utter decay that is Bombay Beach. Filmed and edited by his girlfriend Dani Bell, the video is a fun and colorful pairing to a track written for the strangest of times. A YouTube video premiere is set for Friday, June 12 along with downloading the song directly from BandCamp. Listen now on Apple Music, Spotify and all other streaming services. With ‘Celebratin’ ready to infect the masses, be sure to fill your glasses, crank your stereo’s and wildly shake your hips with some close friends…at a distance of course.
