Earlier this week The Pier received a new song for Exclusive Stream titled “Say I’m Wrong” courtesy of the boys from Ballyhoo! The song is now available for FREE Download & we have an update on Ballyhoo!’s NEW album that comes out Sept 6th, 2011 on Law Records. Lets take a look…
Ballyhoo! front man, Howi Spangler, describes the new song Say I’m Wrong, to The Pier as a ballad about the feeling of losing someone. That feeling that we all get where at times you feel that you may love someone more than they love you, and the song, Say I’m Wrong, is about bringing closure to those doubts.
The song is now available for FREE download by going to BallyhooRocks.com

Daydreams will be BALLYHOO!?s first album on LAW Records, the independent record label owned by the dub rock mega-sensation, Pepper. “Combine some of the catchiest music with one of the hardest working bands I know – that’s BALLYHOO!! They were the perfect addition to LAW! WATCH OUT PEOPLE!” states Yesod Williams of Pepper.
Daydreams is BALLYHOO!’s follow-up to their 2008 release of CHEERS!. While it still retains their signature reggae rock sound, it is noticeably more refined, “I think the new album is better musically and lyrically. We just play better now,” explains BALLYHOO!?s lead singer and guitarist Howi Spangler. Scott Vandrey (DJ Blaze) expanded their instrumental repertoire with the addition of the piano. This enhancement opened the doors to an entirely new, multidimensional sound for the band and is particularly evident in the albums closing song, “Ricochet”.
