Wild Arrows, Mike Law of New Idea Society, EULCID, is excited to share his new single and video  “Animal” out today. To celebrate the release, the NYC-based Wild Arrows will be playing in Los Angeles on May 1 in San Francisco at The Knockout and May 2 in Los Angeles at Harvard & Stone.

“Animal” is the first time I’ve been excited by guitar for a very, very, very, long time. After I lost my studio and all of my gear in Hurricane Sandy I didn’t feel connected to a guitar sound. The combination of guitar and amp I’d found my way to over a lifetime was not being easily replaced. But by accident this Winter I put two amps together via different pedals and blended them to something that really excited my ears. Having read that when Kim Deal of the Breeders gets an idea she follows through in the moment and completes it I decided to do the same thing and I put this song together immediately in about 17 hours. Gary Atturio mixed it a few months later and here it is. It’s about trading teeth with a lion and the fallout with its family over the deal.
