The Gringos Set to Release Nostalgic New Single "Summer Impressions" This Memorial Day Weekend

A Love Letter to Cape Cod

HYANNIS, MA, May 23, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Gringos are inviting fans to step into a warm breeze of memory and melody with the release of their newest single, Summer Impressions. Written by band member Alan Harkrader, the track is a tender, poetic tribute to Cape Cod—the band's longtime summer haven and creative sanctuary during the 1970s.

Blending vivid imagery with soulful musicianship, Summer Impressions paints the sights, sounds, and quiet magic of New England summers: gulls sailing across a painted sky, the steadfast presence of old sea captains, winding roads through small-town main streets. Lead vocalist Joe Vaughn delivers the lyrics with heartfelt depth, while Lynn Tivens adds a nostalgic touch with a shimmering smooth trombone solo.

"This song is more than a memory—it's a homecoming," says Harkrader. "Cape Cod gave us warmth when we were young and hungry musicians, and Summer Impressions is our way of saying thank you to the people and places that shaped us."

The band plans to release the song with two versions: this newly recorded studio track and a special version that mirrors the original demo arrangement, giving longtime fans a rare look into the song's origins. Originally performed live only during their Cape Cod years, Summer Impressions is finally getting the full release it deserves—decades in the making.

For bandmates Jim Miller, Joe Vaughn, and Tyler Newcomb, who made Cape Cod their permanent home, this release is especially personal. It's a reminder of where they've been, how far they've come, and the stories still left to tell.

Summer Impressions will be available on all major streaming platforms starting Memorial Day Weekend. For updates, exclusive content, and behind-the-scenes stories, visit www.thegringos.com or follow the band on social media.
