The Nude Party Return With New Album, Rides On, Out March 10
Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste

The Nude Party announces their fourth studio album Rides On set to release on March 10 on New West Records. The band released their second single off the album, “Hard Times (All Around),” today.

Rides On is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed LP Midnight Manor, which garnered support from artists such as Jack White, Arctic Monkeys, and Orville Peck and debuted at #1 on the Alternative New Artists Album chart. Midnight Manor chases the raw sounds the ’70s Rolling Stones, and leaves listeners trying to catch their breath. The band recorded the album in less than a week, a very different approach from Rides On.

The sextet enjoyed the impromptu writing sessions, exploring the freedom of having their own studio to use. Set in a barn in Catskills, N.Y., The Nude Party was able to create a relaxed environment directly affecting the sound of the record.

The new single “Hard Times (All Around)” explores how life can drag us all down, and sometimes we’re at the mercy of external circumstances. The song follows a swing-like rhythm with the classic organ and piano driving the momentum forward, making you want to dance with friends.

The Nude Party will launch their initial live dates with a three-night stand in Los Angeles on February 17th, and begin the second leg of the tour in April.
