PEPPER
RETURNS TO THE ROAD FOR THE SECOND LEG OF THE LAW RECORDS
“HERE COMES THE LAW TOUR”
WITH PASSAFIRE AND THE SUPERVILLAINS

BAND FEATURED ON ACTIVISION’S GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR LDC
WITH “YOUR FACE”

Fresh off a round of U.K. tour dates with Less Than Jake, PEPPER are back in America to prepare for the second leg of their LAW Records “HERE COMES THE LAW TOUR.”  Launching in the early part of January, this turn will take the Hawaiian-bred, Southern California-based veteran touring band through the western half of the country. Joining PEPPER on the “HERE COMES THE LAW TOUR” are LAW Records label mates Passafire from Savannah, Georgia and The Supervillains from West Palm Beach, Florida.  

The shows—which support the band’s current album PINK CRUSTACEANS AND GOOD VIBRATIONS—commence January 2 in San Diego and take KALEO WASSMAN (vocals/guitars), BRET BOLLINGER (bass/vocals) and YESOD WILLIAMS (drums) through 19 markets in the southwest and along the Pacific coast.  The routing also includes the band’s first proper headlining Los Angeles show on this album with a January 29 date at the newly opened Club Nokia as well as two-night stands in Aspen, Santa Cruz and Anaheim.  

In other PEPPER news, the band’s song “Your Face” from their 2006 album No Shame will be included in a free trio of downloadable songs for Activision’s Guitar Hero ® World Tour game.  The “The Controlled Substance Sound Labs” Reggae Rock Track Pack for Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii also includes “Jimi” from Slightly Stoopid and “Sacrifice” by Expendables and will be available just in time for the holidays on December 23.

PEPPER’s “Here Comes The Law Tour” dates are as follows:

PEPPER has amassed a large and loyal following through their non-stop touring since arriving in Southern California after leaving Hawaii’s Big Island 11 years ago.  The trio has sold over 400,000 records independently; their music has appeared in many movie, television and video game soundtracks; and they’ve had a couple of singles appear on the Billboard “Hot Modern Rock Tracks” chart. Their fifth studio album PINK CRUSTACEANS AND GOOD VIBRATIONS—released in 2008 via their self-run label LAW Records, in association with Controlled Substance Sound Labs/MRI distribution—is filled with the band’s trademark rock-funk-reggae hybrid grooves.  It was produced by Paul Leary of the Butthole Surfers–who also took to the boards on the band’s fourth album No Shame–and engineered by Wyn Davis at Total Access Studio in Redondo Beach.
