Back in action! TWEAK BIRD are busy readying their new EP Undercover Crops in anticipation of their upcoming September/October tour with THE MELVINS where they will be direct support for 45 of the 51 dates on the Melvins previously announced 51/51/51 trek.

Their 7-song Undercover Crops EP was recorded over a long weekend in June with Toshi Kasai -who alongside Dale Crover, produced and recorded Tweak Bird’s previous two releases, 2008′s Reservations EP and 2010′s self-titled LP- is set for release on October 9th via Volcom Entertainment.

Tweak Bird, brothers, Ashton and Caleb Bird, the now Los Angeles by-the-way-of Southern Illinois-based duo have been making loud, heavy music together for a better part of a decade in various incarnations. Driven by big drums, fuzzed out baritone guitar and tandem spacey vocal melodies, Tweak Bird effortlessly blend raw stoner rock and catchy pop bits to form short joyous bursts aural gratification.
