After topping international radio charts with “Guess Who’s Back”, their current infectious single “Good Time” crash landed into the radio charts just as quickly. Now, the band has shared a hilarious music video for new single "Get High?", featuring Damian Abraham of Fucked Up!
"With the legalisation of marijuana, it was inevitable a song like "Get High?" would be birthed," comments charismatic frontman Danko about the band's new single. "I just didn’t know it would be our band that penned the anthem for potheads everywhere. Damian Abraham of Fucked Up even joins us to answer my question - Do You Wanna Get High? His answer is “yes”."

Toronto’s archbishops of amplification prove that even a global pandemic couldn’t stop DANKO JONES. From the chest-out chutzpah of the opening "Guess Who’s Back" and the muscular new wave strut of "Good Time", to the title track’s promise to “smash a thousand guitars tonight!” or the new pothead's anthem "Get High?", Electric Sounds is a deceptively diverse affair. Meanwhile, no band has ever sounded more ready to hit the road than the pumped-up threesome showcased on its hell-for-leather, new rager. Electric Sounds was produced by Eric Ratz, and guest spots from Tyler Stewart (Barenaked Ladies) on "She’s My Baby", Damian Abraham of Fucked Up on "Get High?" and guitarist Daniel Dekay (from Canadian thrash legends Exciter) on "Electric Sounds" complete the picture with a snotty flourish.

ABOUT DANKO JONES
Formed in Toronto, Canada in 1996, DANKO JONES have seen and done just about everything over the last quarter of a century. Powered by a DIY punk rock spirit, and inspired by the good, great, and grotesque of electrified rock ‘n’ roll, they have steadily built a colossal international fan base and become one of the most acclaimed live bands around, embraced by everyone from mainstream radio-rock fans to diehard metalheads. Along the way, they have released ten widely praised studio albums, generating a peerless repertoire of fists-in-the-air crowd-pleasers into the bargain.
From the spiky blues of 2002’s Born A Lion and the crazed power-pop of its follow-up We Sweat Blood (2003), to the priapic perfection of 2010’s Below The Belt, the band’s knack for hitting rock’s sweet spot has never wavered. Over the last decade, DANKO JONES have visibly moved up a few gears. Since frontman Danko and bassist JC joined forced with drummer Rich Knox, the band’s creative fire has blazed more brightly than ever. A succession of all-killer, no-filler albums – Fire Music, Wild Cat, A Rock Supreme, Power Trio – has led to even more gung-ho touring and unapologetic service to the rock cause, with their live chops cleaved razor sharp on stints with Guns N Roses, Motörhead, and Volbeat as well as opening up for icons like The Rolling Stones and Ozzy Osbourne. The UK bore early witness to what's forthcoming with a brief visit in early 2023 alongside rock disciples Black Stone Cherry and The Darkness.
Now, with the release of their blistering eleventh album Electric Sounds set for September 15th, 2023, DANKO JONES are poised to reaffirm exactly why they're so beloved in the global rock community all over again.
DANKO JONES is: Danko Jones – Vocals/Guitar, John Calabrese – Bass, and Rich Knox – Drums.
