Holiday for Strings new album Favorite Flavor out now on gatefold Lp and Cd. The band celebrates by releasing a brand new video for the single Two of You, as well as giving away a Remix pack!

Holiday for Strings is a collaboration between John from Peter, Bjorn and John, as well as producer Pony from Thieves Like Us, and together with 3 former chefs they make dreamy, spacious, experimental pop.

Favorite Flavor is a 47 minute magic carpet ride, sometimes dynamic and lush, sometimes sparse and funky. The album is out now on Sea You Records.

Two of You (direct link) – is the fast punky single off the album, now reworked with an even harder punch and a “walk on the wild side”-break in the middle, complete with monkey drums.

Unwilling/Not able (direct link) – in a rough, lo-fi boogie funk interpretation, nice tape hiss on there too!

Calling Out of Context (direct link) – Arthur Russell’s original is covered on the album, but is here reworked into a 70′s New York smelling, Studio-inspired, ethnic, disco track.

I’m a big Teddybears fan so anything new from them will do until their new album is out and it doesn’t make it worse that it’s a remix of the Peter, Bjorn & John track “Nothing To Worry About”. It’s taken off Peter, Bjorn & John’s second single of “Living Thing”, “It Don’t Move Me”, the single also contains remixes from Miike Snow and Weird Tapes. The single will be released exclusively on Masterbeat.com for one week. Then the EP will be available at all other digital service providers starting July 21st.

Check out where you can catch Peter, Bjorn & John on their US tour with Depeche Mode after the jump.
