CHROMEO TO RELEASE FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM HEAD OVER HEELS ON JUNE 15

PERFORMING MUST’VE BEEN WITH DRAM ON THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON

DEBUTS NEW TRACK BAD DECISION

CANADIAN TOUR DATES THIS SUMMER IN TORONTO,
QUEBEC CITY, OTTAWA, MONTREAL AND VANCOUVER

Toronto, ON — May 8, 2018
— Chromeo debuts a new track today: listen to Bad Decision – a Beats 1 World Record – here. The song is the latest single from their highly anticipated forthcoming album, Head Over Heels, out June 15 on Last Gang, and available for pre-order here.

Furthermore, tonight the band performs the Head Over Heels lead single, Must’ve Been, on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon alongside DRAM, legendary funk guitarist Jesse Johnson, and The Roots. Safe to say the late night airwaves are in for a funk extravaganza.

Head Over Heels, recorded over the past two years at Chromeo’s Los Angeles studio, is the group’s most collaborative to date. Bridging generations and sub-genres like only the Funklordz could, it features guest vocals from The-Dream, Stefflon Don, French Montana and Amber Mark, among others, plus musical contributions from neo-soul legend Raphael Saadiq, 2000s R&B mastermind Rodney Jerkins, D’Angelo collaborator Pino Palladino, Nuyorican jazz ensemble Onyx Collective and more. Far-reaching and expansive, Head Over Heels is Dave 1 and P-Thugg’s heartfelt love letter to the funk, soul and R&B that has influenced them since their teenage years.

Bad Decision follows acclaimed new tracks, Must’ve Been featuring DRAM – released a month ago and already streamed close to 5 million times – as well as Juice, which The Guardian calls “a jaunty, electro-funk mega-banger,” and Bedroom Calling featuring The-Dream, which Billboard lauds as “quite honestly one of the best Chromeo songs we’ve heard in years.”

After a sold-out West Coast run and a smashing set on Coachella’s main stage, the band is adding a headline show in LA at the Hollywood Palladium on August 10. Until then, catch the Funklordz in the U.K. and Europe as well as stops in Toronto, Quebec City, Ottawa, Montreal and Vancouver, and crushing all major festivals: Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Osheaga, Primavera Sound and more. Tickets are on sale now—visit chromeo.net for more information.

Chromeo is the iconic duo of Montreal natives and high school best friends Dave 1 (David Macklovitch) and P-Thugg (Patrick Gemayel). The group rose to prominence with their seminal 2007 release Fancy Footwork, heralding the dawn of the ‘80s electro-funk revival.
