After announcing it over the weekend on socials, rising Los Angeles-duo Paris Texas are releasing their new EP, Red Hand Akimbo today. The five-track project from Louie Pastel and Felix finds the duo expanding upon the undefinable combo of rap and punk energy from their debut, evident on the new Kenny Beats co-produced track “BULLSEYE“. The project also features the previously released single “girls like drugs“, which arrived with visuals directed by Zhamak Fullad and Raheem Hercule. Over the last few weeks the duo has been hinting at the new material with various teasers posted to their socials, including one that features Zack Fox, which extends the storyline they built around their debut EP, BOY ANONYMOUS.
Red Hand Akimbo arrives after the buzz the duo accrued earlier this year when they appeared on the scene out of nowhere with their debut project, BOY ANONYMOUS, which was celebrated by Alternative Press, The FADER, OkayPlayer, NPR, Paste Magazine, UPROXX, Acclaim, triple j and more. Pigeons & Planes also named Paris Texas in their Best New Artists list off the back of their debut single, describing the duo as having, “their own artistic identity, storytelling expertise, and distinct vocal delivery, but it’s the common vision they share that makes Paris Texas so engaging.” BOY ANONYMOUS saw the LA-based duo cover a dizzying range of sonic textures and moods with tracks like “FORCE OF HABIT”, “SITUATIONS” and “HEAVY METAL“.
Additionally, the duo is playing three sold-out headlining shows in celebration of Red Hand Akimbo’s surprise release in Los Angeles, New York and London. In Spring 2022, Paris Texas will also be supporting industry hard hitters BROCKHAMPTON on an extensive North American tour.
Listen to the Red Hand Akimbo EP today, and stay tuned for more from Paris Texas coming soon.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
