Together Pangea Announce Upcoming EP + New Single “Voice in My Head” + ‘Badillac’ Anniversary Tour Starts 7/26
June 21, 2024 BY Bailey Vigliaturo
West Coast rock trio Together Pangea returns with the jangly garage-rock single “Voice in My Head” featuring Reckling, a unique and mature take on Together Pangea’s classic sound that feels both fresh and familiar. The latest single comes off the coattails of the previous release, “Ativan,” and will be featured on their upcoming EP Misery, out September 13th. Listen to “Voice in my Head” here.
“Voice In My Head” is a duet between Together Pangea’s William Keegan and his now wife Kelsey Reckling of rising LA garage punks, Reckling. The song was born out of an intended solo album Keegan began recording during the pandemic, but once the rest of the band heard it, they knew they wanted to be involved. Evoking LA punk legends John Doe and Exene of X with somber acoustic guitars and call-in response vocals, the single remains a true standout of the upcoming Misery EP.
In addition, Together Pangea recently announced a late summer headline tour celebrating 10 years since the release of their acclaimed 2014 album Badillac. They will be playing the album in full each night, as well as new songs off Misery and fan favorites, with support from Liily. The tour begins on July 26th in San Diego and includes stops in New York City, D.C., Chicago, Minneapolis, Seattle, Los Angeles, and more. See all dates here.

Since they began jamming back in William’s Santa Clarita bedroom, Los Angeles indie band Together Pangea–William Keegan, Danny Bengston, and Erik Jimenez–have continually challenged themselves with each subsequent offering. Jelly Jam [2010] poured the gasoline, Living Dummy [2011] struck the match, and Badillac [2014] lit the fire with its revved-up nineties rock-inspired flames. Along the way, fan favorites like “Sick Shit,” “Badillac,” and “Offer” would rack up millions of Spotify streams, while the group received support from Consequence of Sound, Pitchfork, MTV, Stereogum, and more.
Following the 2015 release of The Phage EP, produced by The Replacements’ Tommy Stinson, these working-class boys embarked on the journey to what would become 2017’s Bulls and Roosters, which evidenced their growth as a tried-and-true rock band with just the right amount of “brattiness,” as they like to say. 2021’s DYE is an amalgam of those last three albums: the inward-looking and self-pleasing experimentation of 2017’s Bulls and Roosters, the frantic and screamy Badillac with its inspiration from emotionally raw grunge, and the 50’s pop-heavy 2011 album Living Dummy. The band spent much of 2022 on the road with headline dates across North America, the UK, and Europe, along with festivals and a support tour with Jimmy Eat World
“Voice in My Head” is available on all streaming platforms here.
