Listen to SNACKTIME's New Single "SPACELUV"

If you were with us at the East Austin Block Party in March, then you’re well aware of the absolutely splendid, raucous and funkified kind of show Philadelphia seven-piece SNACKTIME put on. Combining their influences, which range from jazz to rap to rock to punk and R&B, SNACKTIME are one of the most original ensembles out there right now. Their latest single, “SPACELUV,” sounds as indebted to Parliament-Funkadelic as it does Bloc Party. Despite leveling up from doing free shows at Rittenhouse Square during the early chapters of the pandemic (they are now opening for bands like Portugal. The Man and Tegan and Sara), SNACKTIME haven’t lost sense of their roots. “SPACELUV” is a joyous explosion from beginning to end, and it’s going to sound great at festivals and sold-out sets across the country.

“You unlock this door with the key of imagination,” the band says about the track. “You see a dance floor. Across that dance floor, you see the most beautiful alien you could ever imagine. They lock eyes with you (six, to your two). You’re absolutely smitten. The alien band you’re hearing has you on the verge of madness. Love? It couldn’t be, way too soon. Is it the music? Is it mind control? No one can really know. Next thing you know, you’re being beamed up to their ship. You have fallen in SPACELUV.”
