Rave’s Fave: Fidlar – Gimme Something

It’s hard to believe that LA party punks Fidlar don’t already have an album out. That will change on January 22. They’ve made waves not only in the US, but around the world; especially in the UK where their Reading and Leeds Festival sets created massive buzz. They just dropped a new track, “Gimmie Something” from the album. The song is stellar and a little more melodic and less crazy than most Fidlar fare. We at B3SCI are big fans of this band, and melodic is almost always a good thing. The Fidlar guys love Creedence Clearwater Revival and they managed to grab old CCR footage to make it seem as if it’s CCR that is performing “Gimme Something” live. I hung out in studio with Fidlar at the beginning of this year, and many of the songs they played will be on the album. You can check out our interview session here. Not a coincidence that they covered CCR’s “Lodi”, which you will see in the video. By Bruce Rave
