Vancouver’s GETAWAY VAN Premiere Music Video “Lord I’ve Been Running” via TheObelisk
Self Titled Debut Out Now!
New to the Vancouver rock scene, GETAWAY VAN has been maneuvering through venues to bring their slightly out of control punky blues stoner fuzz rock to entertained audiences for the past year. Collectively, the band shares a broad taste in music and using that to their advantage it’s translated into a record full of different styles and influences that they recently released on February 23rd of this year.
With great praise for their single “Lord I’ve Been Running”, the band has put together a new music video and premiering it on TheObelisk at the following link: http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2019/04/22/getaway-van-lord-ive-been-running-video-premiere/
The band adds:
“‘Lord I’ve Been Running’ is the second single from our debut, full-length album. Written by bassist, Zack Fox, this is a song about the tribulations of life, and the toll it can take on a person. We’ve all always loved this song due to the high energy and it’s almost desperate nature. The powerful vocals and incessantly running guitars really seem to get people moving, and help make it a memorable track. It’s certainly a song that everyone can find a connection to on a personal level, and as such, it was the natural choice for our first music video to come from this album.”
GETAWAY VAN‘s self-titled debut album follows the band’s two 2018 released EPs, ‘Brokedown’ and ‘Burnouts’. The band showcases a sound that is foot-to-the-floor rock n’ roll sure to shake rooms like a straight piped V8. Bringing roots of stoner rock, blues, punk, and folk, GETAWAY VAN is your very own experience of controlled chaos.
The band comments:
“Welcome to the world of Getaway Van. This is our debut full-length, self-titled album. This is something that we are all really proud of. Something that all four of us have seen coming for the better part of a year and a half. Now that it’s here, we are stoked to share it with everyone. You’ll be able to pick out basically every sub-genre that’s been derived from rock in this album, with lyrical content that spans from self-loathing and depression, to love, to serial killers, to cars. We really hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed recording it! (And as much as we REALLY enjoy playing it). Thanks for listening.”

“Man, never thought I’d find a band that bridges the gap between Fu Manchu stoner grooves and CANCON radio rock like this.” – Hellbound
““Getaway Van” this is fun, it knows how to get in trouble, and it knows how to cover its tracks. Get it. That’s a no brainer, requiring no thought at all.” – Maximum Volume Music
“Getaway Van is a very talented band with a variety of musical styles that captures the attention of many musical tastes. These guys are good for any sort of party setting. Think warm summer nights, cold drinks and good company.” – Maehem Underground Media
“These boys put out a fine album that really showcased their abilities.” – Metal Temple
“Continuing in the same vein of Truckfighters-esque stoner rock heard on January’s Burnouts EP, we are treated to a much fuller sound on this release… It’s meatier, it’s harder, it’s heavier. If that sounds a bit pornographic, you’re not far off, because this is a dirty record — full of fuzz and viscera.” – Vancity Rockers
