BOYTOY premiered the video for their single Postal – watch it via YouTube below. Postal is featured on the Brooklyn trio’s debut full-length album, ‘Grackle,’ which arrived this month via PaperCup Music – purchase here.
‘Grackle’ was chosen as the album’s name, first as a nod to SXSW, as the bird nearly out numbers music fans and industry during the annual Austin, Texas conference, and secondly based on the Mexican folklore of the bird, called Zanate in Spanish. Having no voice of its own, the grackle stole its seven distinct songs from the wise and knowing sea turtle. You can hear the Zanate’s vocals as the Seven Passions (Love, Hate, Fear, Courage, Joy, Sadness, and Anger) of life.
