This mirthful pop-punk present from Seattle trio Dude York features seven seasonally-inspired originals and two covers.

It finally happened: Hardly Art is attempting their hand at the lucrative holiday album racket. More catchy than cynical, however, Dude York’s Halftime for the Holidays defies any knee-jerk categorization as a mere year-end cash-grab. As evidenced by spunky original “Break Up Holiday” – the new music video for which premiered today on Stereogum – Dude York still have a lot on their minds. Plus, they really like the holidays.

Halftime for the Holidays (so named for its abundance of arena-ready guitar solos) includes seven Dude York originals along with a punked-up rendition of “Silent Night” and “Takin’ Care of Christmas” (yup). It will be out on CD and digital/streaming services Friday, November 24th and is available for pre-order now. 

Dude York’s US tour with Alex Lahey kicks off November 15th. See below for a full list of upcoming performances. 

Today, FLOOD Magazine premiered the trippy new music video for “Black Jack,” the bombastic opening salvo from Dude York’s full-length Sincerely, which was released earlier this year. Watch the video in full here or embedded below. Dude York are currently touring the West Coast with Sub Pop signees LVL UP, and will be touring America this winter with Alex Lahey. See below for a full list of dates. As ever, any and all updates can be found on the tour page.
