“Here Comes the Lightning” was co-written with Grammy winner P!nk and producer Butch Walker.
Big B’s new album, Fool’s Gold, will be released on July 9th.
Las Vegas hooligan Big B has just premiered his new video for “Here Comes The Lightning” online with VEVO. “Here Comes The Lightning” was co-written by Grammy-winning singer/songwriter P!nk and producer Butch Walker, and is the first single from Big B‘s new album Fool’s Gold, which hits stores and online outlets July 9th on Suburban Noize Records.
“I was lucky enough to work with P!nk and Butch Walker on “Here Comes The Lightning,” says Big B. “We had talked about making music together for a long time and for this record it finally happened. We had Butch Walker produce the track and helped us write some of the music for it. He was working with Panic At The Disco at the time and he took a day off to work with us. Butch had some music that went with the ideas that we had, and as soon as he played us the track, P!nk and I just both grabbed a pen and pad and starting writing to it. It turned out to be an awesome song, and we were fortunate enough to create a dope video to back it up.”
Big B‘s new album Fool’s Gold features musical collaborations with Slightly Stoopid, The Dirty Heads, and members of legendary punk outfits NOFX and Pennywise. The end result is a collection of songs that are just as contagious as Big B‘s thuggish charm. With the entire music industry focused on finding the next huge star on reality television, Big B has taken a back-to-basics approach on Fool’s Gold and filled it with fun and spirited songs that can fit into any music lover’s playlist. The album is rich is musical diversity and is cleverly inventive, as Big B seamlessly bridges the gap between rock, hip-hop, and alternative.
Fans can catch Big B on tour this summer with The Dirty Heads and The Expendables on the Cabin By The Sea Tour throughout June and July. Dates are below.
