MATT AND KIM RELEASE NEW “GO GO” SINGLE & VIDEO
“GRAND” 10 YEAR CELEBRATION TOUR STARTS OCTOBER 17
Ahead of their fall tour, MATT AND KIM today release their pumped up new single “GO GO” (FADER Label) and accompanying music video. Known for infectious, beat-driven tracks, “GO GO” is right in step as the perfect can’t-stay-in-your-seat single.
LISTEN TO “GO GO” LINK
Featuring teenage versions of Matt and Kim and even wearing the duo’s stage clothes, the “GO GO” music video features dance star Audrey Lane Partlow (“Little Kim”) and Romeo Blanco (“Little Matt”) who together brought some next-level energy to the new track. Audrey, who is 15 years old, choreographed the moves and the video was created, directed, shot, and edited by Matt.
This month, Matt and Kim will set out on their GRAND 10 Year Celebration Tour playing their breakout album GRAND in full, including hits Daylight and Lessons Learned plus fan favorites, some which they’ve never played live before. What NPR said of the band back then: “Matt Johnson and Kim Schifino have established a hard-won reputation as a raucous live juggernaut” still holds true today as the tour-loving Brooklyn two piece continue to incite non-stop dance parties at every venue they play. And that’s just how they intend to celebrate with fans across the U.S. this fall.
Matt and Kim also teamed up with CHI-FLO to design a limited edition “Good Ol’ Fashion Nightmare” tour jacket which will be available on Monday, October 7 at the shows and online:
https://mattandkim.manheadmerch.com/products/good-ol-fashion-nightmare-jacket .
The Matt and Kim podcast airs new episodes weekly. Listen in as the duo discusses crazy hypotheticals that can actually get deep. Fans in select cities will have the opportunity to sit in on a live taping of The Matt and Kim Podcast. Look for this asterisk * featured on many select tour dates.

TICKETS AT: https://www.foilarmsandhog.ie/tour
FOIL ARMS AND HOG, Ireland’s top sketch comedy trio, bring their live show SWINES for its U.S. debut this month. Sean Finegan, Sean Flanagan, and Conor McKenna (collectively known as Foil Arms and Hog), are viral video stars with over 100 million hits and a massive fan base of followers who anxiously await their weekly comedy video posts. Though many fans know the trio for their online sketches, it’s in their live show where Foil Arms and Hog really shine. Earlier this year, the trio achieved critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where Swines sold out its run and was the best-reviewed show of the festival.
This month, Foil Arms and Hog bring Swines to America for the first time ever. Come see over an hour of scripted nonsense, twisted characters, music, and the occasional, unintentional improvisation.
Foil Arms and Hog post new, original sketch comedy videos every Thursday:
