Ace Reporter Premiere Behind The Scenes Video

Today Ace Premiere their brand new “behind the scenes” video for “Untouched and Arrived” video for the single “Untouched And Arrived”. The song comes of their Yearling XL album, which is now out on Oh La La Records.

Founded in New York City and now based in Chicago, Ace Reporter was born of exhaustion. “I was burned out by music in every way, except creatively,” explains Chris Snyder, the creative force behind the band. “I just wanted to write.” And so he did, finishing a new song every 24 hours for 365 consecutive days. The songs that resulted from this threesixfive project span most of the genres so often prefixed by “indie” — rock, folk, electro, pop. But they are also immediate and cohesive, grounded as much by propulsive beats and hooky melodies as by the dark wit in Snyder’s lyrics. Following Snyder’s move to Chicago in 2013, the band’s membership solidified into a powerful four-piece: Snyder on vocals and guitar, Ben Dacoba on drums, Corbin Howard on keys, and Gordon Walters on bass. Having toured with bands as diverse as The Fratellis and Steel Pulse, Ace Reporter has gained the reputation of a band that shouldn’t be able to top their recordings…until you see them live. Yearling XL, a deluxe edition of the band’s debut album with three bonus tracks, will be released April 22, 2014 by Ooh La La Records.
