Summertime Dropouts Set To Release First Single From "Rewind"

Voluminous Records' flagship artist Summertime Dropouts is set to release Full Time Cutie, the first single from their upcoming debut album Rewind.

Executive Producer Clint Gibbs, who has been involved with a laundry list of the "who's who" on Top 40 radio states, “their skill and dedication to the music is on par with the ’A’ crop of major label acts. After hearing the Summertime demos I knew they had a great record ahead of them.”

Full Time Cutie tells the story of a teen content with her life as a popular outsider and music head who refuses to get caught up in the melodramatic games typical of highschoolers. Instead, she'd rather cut against the grain and immerse herself in her bright pink guitar en route to a Grammy.

A corresponding video for Full Time Cutie will be released to major video outlets in time for the album release set for June 12th.
