NASHVILLE, Tenn, - Classic Americana Rock Band, Karson City Rebels (KCR), has announced the release of the ultimate summertime anthem song, "Let's Party." The second single in the 2024 Waterfall Series of singles positioned as an early introduction to the group's EP (titled DRIVIN' due Oct. 4, 2024), the upbeat, hard-drivin' dance tune will be available Friday, June 28, 2024, via all major digital retail and streaming platforms. (Digital distribution spearheaded by Ed Gerter/Digital Distribution Services.)
Written by band frontman Gil Karson and co-writer Michael Keene (of The Faceless), and produced by Karson alongside Gerhard Joost, "Let's Party" stands up to its name firing with 80s rock guitar licks (akin to Bon Jovi, Journey, Kansas) revved by funky rhythms and techno sounds that kick the doors wide open to make way for simplistic lyrics. The "waitin' for the weekend," "pop-a-top," "let your hair down," "crank-it-up" track cuts straight to the chase ramping up good-spirited intentions to celebrate in an all-night rave. The unapologetic, enthusiastic call-and-answer chorus echoes the fun-lovin' energy as a Karson City Rebels' signature.
"The title says it all, 'Let's party!' The track is driving fusion of some AC/DC influence in the verse, classic rock in the chorus, and southern rock lead guitar in the instrumental section," KCR lead singer, songwriter and co-producer, Gil Karson introduced, "Playing live with the Karson City Rebels is a PARTY! The song fits the character of the band to the 'T'."
Appealing to music lovers with a taste for vintage rock instrumentation, "Let's Party" follows the release and momentum of the band's debut single "Runaway Train" (released May 3, 2024); the song is poised to become the quintessential party anthem of the season.

ABOUT
Karson City Rebels delivers a stoked retro blend of Americana-rock, blues and Bakersfield sound to the music scene. Led by Gil Karson (lead singer), Karson formed the group following a sabbatical to focus on raising his family and embarking on a successful career in film direction and production to “answer the call” to return to his inherited love–music and live performance.
Made up of multi-instrumentalist Jon Adams, guitarists Kyle Appleton and Chris Brooks, Brian Burwell (on drums), and Jon Greathouse (on keyboards and vocals), the newly organized six-member triple threat group has worked alongside Grammy-winning producer Gerhard Joost (Stevie Wonder, Missy Elliot, Sangeeta) at Studio Hill Austin and recorded at Sal Rodriguez’s Studio in LA.
