Over two years have passed since Shake Some Action!<\/a> released their well-crafted Wide Awake<\/em><\/a> LP, and now we can enjoy some cool new work. Four power pop songs influenced by the British invasion\u00a0to be precise, brought together on the Trip to Yesterday<\/em><\/a> EP. A quick look at the revealing title or stylish cover art and you know: we are going way back into Mod culture here. The energetic Rickenbacker guitar riffs and infectiously sung choruses fit in seamlessly, so does the video for standout opening track Rage Into the Daylight<\/em>, set to footage from John Harris’ 1964 film Where’s the Bus<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The band has now been reduced to a solo project in which Seattle-based musician James Hall is responsible for vocals, guitars, bass and drums, but the sound does not suffer at all. These are four hits.<\/p>\n
