Velocity Girl emerged from the Washington DC indie scene in the early 1990s with a reverb drenched sound combining melody and noise, inspired in equal measure by British shoegaze and 60s pop.
The group scored early with the iconic 7” single My Forgotten Favorite on Slumberland Records, before signing to Sub Pop and releasing three albums: the groundbreaking noise pop album Copacetic, the cleaned-up shimmer of the breakthrough Simpatico and the underrated Gilded Stars and Zealous Hearts before calling it a day in 1996.
Now the band revisits their first full length with UltraCopacetic, a deluxe double album release on Sub Pop featuring a newly remixed and remastered Copacetic, plus B-sides, an unreleased track and the group’s 1993 Peel Session.
Velocity Girl is back with much vengeance, playing their first shows in more than 25 years.
