Check out the premiere of the AAA Battery track “Jenna” via Exclaim now!

AAA Battery is the new pop group led by Canadian pop hero Spookey Ruben on vocals, San Francisco’s Joe Maydak on bass and Chicago’s Fred Jeske on guitar and drums. All have middle names that begin with the letter “A.” The band will release its debut album Year of The Woman on December 3^rd, 2013 and now Canada’s national music publicationExclaim has premiered the single “Jenna” via its website here.

Following up the album’s first single “Tea Time” (recently premiered via My Old Kentucky Blog), AAA Battery now presents “Jenna,” a feminist anthem which asks the question “Is social adaptability essential in this day and age?” According to Jeske, “This woman has made a decision to change herself for the sake of the realm, trying to change to fit in, but sacrificing herself on the way. She eventually discovers that the prize is not worth the fight! The consumption of this ‘poison tea’ represents the absorption of the human network’s failures and flaws. All she should have done the entire time was to be herself.”

With its members located throughout North America, AAA Battery’s addictive power pop could only have formed by chance.Maydak and Jeske had been playing together for years and were already fans of Canadian musician and experimental filmmaker, Spookey Ruben when they asked if him to guest of one of their tracks. Ruben, known for his underground classic album Modes of Transportation Vol. 1 (TVT Records) and his more recent collaborations with everyone fromEsthero to Ariel Pink, was happy to oblige and ultimately went on to join the band and appear on the entire album.
