Shh Shh…a minute! Mod Lang, the group weve been waiting for, has
finally arrived with a debut 45!

After a year of demos and in-person performances that impressed
everyone from The Lemon Twigs to your mom (what!), Mod Lang can finally
polyphonically dent your ear drums with wax.

Yes, Mod Lang named themselves after a Big Star song. Bigdeal.

No, theyre not accepting suggestions for a more original name but
thanks for your concern.

Born out of Detroits relentless rock n roll circuit, Mod Lang came
together in the summer 24 when scenesters Antonio Keka(guitar/vox)
and Alex Belfie (guitar/vox) joined forces with Ava East (bass/vox) and
Ben Taber (drums) to put their sharp pop rock instincts front and
center. As youll hear on both sides, Kekas and Belfies bright
harmonies sound Everly-tight with a youthful and slightly ragged
exuberance thats very convincing. Clever hooks, heartfelt grit, and a
sense of fun. Thats what we need most in these dreadful times.

The fully sharpened TV Star consumes side-A and hits with the
immediacy of a lost-era 70s power-pop gem thats urgent, and
unashamedly melodic.

What exactly is a TV star? Write your answer here____________________.

The tough but tuneful bruiser on the flip side 3+1 sounds like a
classic B-side that collectors will one day shout about.

What started as a new outlet between their other projects (Sugar
Tradition, Secondary Colors, Shadow Show, Fen Fen) Mod Lang quickly
sharpened into one of the most tuneful, energized groups weve seen in
years. While everyone’s raving about Chicago, its time for them to
embrace Motor City rock n roll at last!

For a group thats spent its first year and a half building a
reputation onstage with no album out, this single puts their strengths
on full display. Give a listen and find out for yourself.

Biff! Bang! Pow!
