Impressive Cincinnati AltRock trio Public is all set to performing at Cincinnati’s huge Bunbury Music Festival this weekend, essentially opening the fest Friday at 2 p.m. with a performance on the Bud Light Stage.
The band — nominated at the most recent Cincinnati Entertainment Awards for “Best New Artist” — released its four-track EP, Red, last summer and is now offering fans a brand-new recording, just in time to learn all the words and sing along at tomorrow’s fest appearance.
The new track is “Honeybee,” a spacious, groove-driven Indie Pop gem which is slated for Public’s forthcoming second EP.
If you’re download phobic, you can also grab a physical copy of the single. Fifty are being pressed, featuring hand-drawn artwork and a bonus acoustic B-side, “I Need You,” and made available at Bunbury.
Both songs will be available for download on July 16. The stream and eventual download will be available at publictheband.com.
