Choo Choo la Rouge has shared “In Between,” the third and final single and video from their forthcoming new album The Sunshine State, their first LP in 14 years which arrives April 5 on Kiam Records. According to singer/guitarist Vincent Scorziello. “To me this song is about bumping around in the middle of life, a little restless and feeling not quite sure about it all,” shares singer/guitarist Vincent Scorziello. “Somewhere between being happy and dealing with your obligations, between what you have and what you think you want, daydreaming your way into trouble, possibly. Choo Choo la Rouge refers to a part of the Boston subway system that passes through working class communities of the city as well as well as a certain Ivy League a campus. The band was a mainstay of the fertile Boston scene of the late-’90s and early aughts, alongside similarly arresting acts such as Papas Fritas and Hallelujah The Hills. So, the fact Choo Choo la Rouge are back and by all accounts sounding as good as ever is gift that I welcome wholeheartedly.

The accompanying video for In Between was created by artist, Matthew Schlanger known for his real time analog compositions. He created this video using a Rutt Etra, a 1970s scan processor.
