Swedish Blues Rockers Blues Pills has unveiled the official video for the third single “Piggyback Ride” taken from upcoming album “Birthday,” set to release on August 2nd, 2024 via Throwdown Entertainment. Watch the official video through the YouTube player below:
Blues Pills unveils their fourth studio album, “Birthday.” Marked by the lead singer Elin Larsson’s discovery of her pregnancy during the recordings and journey to motherhood, infusing the music with profound emotion.
Written in just a few weeks in Sweden’s serene countryside and produced by Grammy-nominated Freddy Alexander, the album captures Blues Pills’ raw energy and magnetic charisma in its purest and most honest form. “Birthday” symbolizes not just musical evolution but also the deep bond between bandmates, evident in their unwavering support for Elin during this transformative time.
“With this album we truly let ourselves free, leaving all the boundaries and expectations behind to write music we love. We wanted to capture the raw and authentic feeling from when we play live on an album, yet pushing ourselves to create and write the best we’ve ever done. The singer Elin was pregnant during the recordings, and what isn’t more rock’n’roll than that? To create human life and music.”
“Birthday” is a celebration of life and music and you are invited to the party.
