Listen to Dope Lemon’s new single about ‘local dusty legend’ Stingray Pete

Dope Lemon

Dope Lemon is back with another track from his forthcoming album and while there's no free Cadillac for this one, it comes with a backstory.

Dope Lemon revealed a new album, Rose Pink Cadillac, on the way and a Cadillac car giveaway last week, and today he’s following it up by unveiling a new single and video ‘Stingray Pete.’

He’s comparing it to a Clint Eastwood Winchester shootout, with ‘Stingray Pete’ aiming to convey a slow-building, desert dust-soaked track that gleams with the neon’s and metallics of a Sergio Leone silver bullet.

This is Angus Stone’s third single off his upcoming third album.

“The new song is an epic! Stingray Pete is a Clint Eastwood shoot out of a western from Dope Lemon,” he says.

“It’s a tale of Stingray Pete. He’s the local dusty legend that seems to find himself on yet another epic adventure into the night when he hits the town. It’s a song we wrote about the wild vastness that lies beyond the unknown of the night for old Stingray Pete.”

“It was epic to be the one to light the whole field with the strike of a single match, which is the actual shot in the video.  This was probably one of my most favourite shoots to date. Great crew. Great people. And an epic new single to lead into what will be a really amazing release for Dope Lemon this year”.

Rose Pink Cadillac will be released on 12 November and contains already released singles ‘Rose Pink Cadillac’, ‘Kids Fallin’ In Love’ and ‘Every Day Is A Holiday’ ft. Winston Surfshirt.

Dope Lemon has amassed over 400 million streams from his two widely acclaimed albums, Smooth Big Cat (2019) which came in at #2 on the ARIA Album charts, and Honey Bones (2016), as well as the Hounds Tooth EP. The three singles from Rose Pink Cadillac have already been streamed over 30 million times.
