Adam Hattaway & The Haunters – Ted Danson: 13th Floor New Song Of The Day

Ted Danson seems like a nice guy — but this track isn’t about him. Adam Hattaway returns with The Haunters to release the first single from their upcoming album Hot Variety.

Here is the blurb with more:

Ted Danson is three minutes of rock ’n’ roll lost at the disco. It all started when a big ol’ organ — one that took up half the car — was hauled into the hills of Ōtiake, just to use its built-in drum machine. That beat lays the foundation for a swampy Fender Rhodes bubbling beneath busted guitars, pounding congas, signature Haunters fuzz, and, inexplicably, a vacuum cleaner — all captured on glorious 2” 16-track tape.

The release is accompanied by a meticulously chaotic and slightly disturbing stop -motion video by Maya Templer and Jack O’Connell (Rough On Rats) starring a surreal lineup of Bob Dylan, Richard Nixon and yep… Ted Danson.

Hot Variety is out September 5th on all streaming platforms and a very limited release of 100 vinyl via Leather Jacket Records.
